Ep 29 - Apples, Cinnamon, And Spices Emerge From This White Tea Aged Over 19 Years
Description
The host and one of the tea importers from Trident Cafe and Teas, Jake Dirnberger, and filmmaker, Josh Hyde, steep a two decades old, this white tea cake made from shoumei (larger tea leaves harvested late in the growing season) is something you won’t come across every day. Aged white teas are purported to have numerous health benefits, and are prized for their unique flavors and chaqi (tea energy). Because white teas aren’t de-enzymed as greens, oolongs, and blacks are, they oxidize naturally over a gradual period. Their flavors are rich and complex. In this cake, we taste medicinal herbs, wildflower honey, and cereal grains. This tea is an experience not to be missed, highly recommended for collectors.
