I got this a sample, and I'm glad I did! The best white tea I've ever had. And I used to not like white tea, now I'm a fan 👍

Firmness and fortitude. A hayloft aroma, full backbone in the body, and miles of grassy plains in the cup. No wimpy white tea here. Versatile, charismatic, with excellent texture.
A Bai Mu Dan style tea produced April 20, 2020 by Mr. Huang Hai Qiang in Fuding City of Fujian Province. Bai Mu Dan is defined as a white tea made from a one bud, two leaf pick. This lot was made from Fuding Big Hair plants that are over 50 years old growing at approximately 1,300 feet. Withered fully in-house by the finely skilled Mr. Huang and aged in a cool warehouse for two years. Highly recommended!

Another delicious white tea to add to my rotation!
Amazing! I typically like, but don't love, white teas. This tea is easily one of my all-time favorite teas and will be reordering it. I brew it gung fu style, and can easily get 5-6 infusions out of it. As the description lists, there is a lot more going on than a typical white tea. The flavor reminds me of a meadow in late September, earthy and warm, yet floral and bright.
Thanks for sending a sample of this tea. I will be purchasing some soon . This has a little more backbone than some other white teas which I like, but very pleasant and soothing.
Wow! This tea just keeps on giving! I'm on my 6th infusion and it's so sweet and woodsy. Warm and cozy yet subtly "awake". A wonderful bai mudan!
Really solid white tea. Not as sweet as the other Bai Mu Dan teas from TeaSource that I’ve tried (White Peony, Harvest Moon) but the strength of the body makes this one uniquely pleasant in its own regard.
This tea starts out subtle and teasing, but opens into a genuine flavor powerhouse! The aroma of the wet leaves is humus, but not like soil, a lot more herbaceous like the scent of freshly rotting leaves on a trail. Aptly named! The chi of this tea is soothing and quietly activating. A totally smooth and full mouthfeel. Notes of spinach and herbs for taste. I think this will be a new daily drinker for me! I highly recommend.
