2019 Yue Guang Bai (Moonlight White) Tea Balls
As the old saying goes ‘don't judge a book by its cover’. These moonlight white balls may not look pretty, but its flavour will beat most of the pricier and prettier looking teas. In fact, we think this is one of the best white tea we’ve tasted so far this year!
The texture is smooth and creamy with an aromatic profile of ripe fruits, spices and herbal candies when steeped at high temperature, and sweet and floral when steeped at low temperatures. The tea soup is bright and clear, and has the colour of a young dessert wine. Just several sips of this tea will offer a soothing body sensation. All in all, an intriguing and highly addictive tea with lots of flavour to keep you coming back for more.
