From the rows and rows of tea tins that require a ladder to reach, to the artsy TEA sign, there was no doubt what was available to sample and/or purchase here. On this day, the Flight of Teas that were featured included a lovely variety of green teas, including Anji Baicha (a Chinese green with a light herbal honey flavor), Snow Dragon (light and sweet), and Bi Lo Chun (a light bodied green with woodsy and fruit notes).
The tea specialists, anxious to please and share their knowledge, were happy to pour a sampling of the green teas. The three assorted flavors were lined up behind the clear glass jars that displayed a sampling of the dry leaf. If you look closely, you can observe the difference in the leaf and also in the various shades of the brewed tea. It truly is a study! Snow Dragon was my tea of choice, a delicately sweet brew with a light floral note.
I remember reading about the opening and wishing I were closer! Thanks for sharing!
