2012 Shixiang Fuding Shou Mei White Tea Cake

Description

‘Shixiang’ Is a very large brand with a focus on Fuding White tea. Medium to high quality White tea (just like Pu Erh) has great aging potential. This great example of a 2012 Shou Mei is very pure tasting, the leafs are browning off nicely and there is a pungent aroma of berries, raspberry and red fruits off the rinse! The texture is smooth with a lubricating mouth feel that is contradicted by a signature (White tea bite). A faint hint of aged taste poking through combined with the wonderful raspberry/red fruit front flavour makes this tea a real winner!
