Forest Garden White Autumn

2025-03-26

While I'm not typically a white tea drinker, recent samples from the Yiwu area have sparked my interest—particularly given their shared plant origins with puerh teas. (This one is from Laos - not far away)

Overall, it lacks significant complexity but becomes remarkably flavorful when brewed with a high leaf ratio. (though not quite the Fujian level) It develops noticeable thickness, rich floral and peach notes, and a distinct grounded energy.

The garden’s location within a clean forested area at approximately 1300m likely contributes to its clean character.

I'm curious how the spring harvest version would compare.
