Tasting Notes

From our Chief Tea Taster
Submit
Aroma
Aromatic, redolent of white lilies, raw mango and hints of geranium.
Appearance
Champagne
Taste
A pleasantly supple, smooth, light-bodied cup which beams with floral-fruity attributes.

The fragrant elegance of a flowery bouquet, reminiscent of white lilies and geranium greet the palate and gradually opens up to reveal a heart resonating with delectable notes of raw mango; rendering a rich, radiant character to the liquor.

The luminous fragrance of spring sap chiseled with dappling white flowers lingers on in the aftertaste and makes for an invigorating finish. The second steep recommended at 4 mins is mellower and beams with luscious tones of vine peach punctuated by a fleeting, floral score. The third steep is equally enjoyable and is recommended with ice for a regal experience.

Phenomenal white tea

I’ve been a customer for 7 years, I have to say this is the best white tea you have offered so far. It’s delicate and subtle and yet the flavor comes through even in a second steeping.

It's hard to describe...

It's hard to describe this tea! Yes it is very/too expensive yes it is produced 3-4 kilograms per year but the taste is unforgettable! The aroma and aftertaste remained for a long time after the first cup. Subsequent brews were not so much admired. Summary: Yes, tea is not for every day, but definitely worth a try!

I have never met a tea better than this one.

I look forward to Moonlight in Badamtam every year.
I drank INVOICE EX-1, EX-3 and EX-5 this year.
Each has its own personality and is delicious, but this tea was my favorite.
I have purchased several times already.
Thank you for selling this tea.
