Overview
Pairing: shortbread, fresh fruit, or mild cheeses

Bai Sha Xi is attempting to reproduce a classic "three blend" tea that was first produced in An Hua County of Hunan in 1825 and then gifted to the Emperor of China (Daoguang of the Qing). The "三尖" (three tian jian) blend is special because it combines to create a complex whole. When I drink it, it reminds me of oolong and aged pu-erh, with a hint of molasses, smoke and peat. The tea can be infused many times, and is more infusable than most Tian Jian teas. The tea will age gracefully. It should not be sealed. The packaging it comes in is perfect for aging. 2020 production 200 grams per box ***Box may be damaged in transit.
