Review of Pear White Tea (Formerly White Pear)
September 27th, 2009
Aroma | Flavor | Value | Total |

This was surprisingly strong for a white tea. I brewed it for 4 minutes using a little over a cup with the teabag, and it was too strong. I recommend either brewing for a shorter time or using the teabag to brew two or more cups at once. This tea is quite good for multiple infusions; the pear comes out more in later infusions.
The liquor is dark. There's a hint of sweetness and some bitterness, a fair amount of sourness, and a lot of astringency. I would not describe this tea as "delicate".
One thing I like about this tea, however, is that the tea dominates the aroma; the pear is subtle and not overdone.
