Vendor Notes
This aged white tea opens with a complex bouquet of dried plum, forest mushrooms, and petrichor, with a hint of burnt cookie and tobacco. As it infuses, herbaceous notes emerge alongside dried granny smith and dark cherry juice, offering a sweet broth with a woody, porridge-like texture. Further steeps reveal warming cassia, rich raisins, creamy oatmeal, and burnt sugar, culminating in a robust and comforting session that deepens with each infusion.
