Taste
Indulge in a luxurious cup of Spring Moonlights from the lush hills of Darjeeling. This impeccably crafted cup exudes elegance with its velvety texture and delicate flavors. Dive into a symphony of Asiatic lilies and peony blossoms, intertwined with tropical fruit undertones that tantalize the senses. As you journey through each sip, experience the luscious notes of muskmelon and the refreshing hint of fresh-green accents.
The experience culminates in a lingering, slightly sweet finish, reminiscent of grapes. For an equally enjoyable experience, try a second steep at 4 minutes, or serve over ice for a refreshing twist.

Excellent enjoyable tea!

A very fine tea, very floral, and has perhaps some characteristics of a Phoenix Bird oolong. It doesn't look like a Chinese silver needle white tea, but a bit more like a Bai Mu Dan. I got good results from steeping at 195 F. HIghly recommended. Also very well documented, but would prefer an even larger ziploc bag to move the tea into after opening.

What a great tea...

What a great tea. A true taste of white tea. Very flowery, light and pleasure to drink. Highly recommended white tea. I have been buying tea from many other sources but TEABOX is my new favorite! Wonderful tea.

After you drink this tea, you're mouth will be full of flowers.

This tea is full of tropical fruit notes and sweet floral notes. It was winter, so I boiled it with warm water, and the room was filled with the sweet and fragrant aroma of tea. I think it is the result of the hard work of the Teabox masters.

Delightful surprise of great taste.

Delightful surprise of great taste; floral and fruit. Flavorful. I knew from the aroma of the dry leaves it was going to be good and it was. Easy to brew, forgiving, an easy happy pleasure. Gives a nice energized calm.
