White tea · Fuding福鼎白茶
Withered, lightly oxidised·8 teas·day · evening
Five harvests of silver needle, from this year's picking back to an aged 2013. White tea is the only one in this list that changes on the shelf by itself: year by year the freshness leaves and date, honey and camphor arrive in its place.

Honey and apricot, silken texture. Even warmth through the chest.
Honey, dried melon, velvet. Settles deeply and slowly.
Dry herbs and date, soft depth. Even warmth without drowsiness.
Hay-like, simple, faintly sweet. An everyday tea that forgives any water.
Dried date and camphor, thick liquor. Deeply settling, good before sleep.
Resin and medicinal herbs, very dense. Heavy warmth, deep sleep. limited

Two ends of the island side by side: the heavily oxidised Oriental Beauty, close to a red tea in character, and a lightly roasted milk oolong — soft and creamy.
Honey, ripe peach, muscat. Warm and rounded, almost a dessert.
