White Peony

Steeped this for three minutes and the liquor turned a soft honey gold, exactly what I hoped for from those young leaves and silvery buds. It's delicate but has a real depth that keeps me coming back for another cup all afternoon.

The silvery buds are what sold me, and they brew up so light and delicate—exactly what I want on a hot afternoon. I've been steeping a second batch from the same leaves and it's still got that gentle sweetness.

The young leaves and silvery buds brew up so pale and delicate, but the flavor is surprisingly full and mellow. I've been reaching for this every afternoon since it arrived, and it steeps beautifully even when I forget it for a few extra minutes.
