White Crow 2025 Bangdong Shoumei White Tea

Price range: $4.50 through $120.00

Description

This year’s edition of White Crow maintains the same great qualities as previous years, including pleasant florals, a touch of hay, and a honey-like sweetness. This is all despite an unplanned change in the source material, which now comes from Bangdong (still Lincang).

This change was a means to maintain the same quality, and in side-by-side comparisons with the ’23 and ’24 pressings, was difficult to distinguish. If anything, this year’s tea is an improvement, offering a creamier texture and wildflower fragrance.

As with previous years, this tea performs well for multiple gongfu infusions, as well as boiled on the stove, and is well suited for drinking now or storing for the future.

    The disappearing taste made this session quite difficult to evaluate. Thankfully, the heat lingers in the mouth, which felt good during the cold winter we’re having.
    ​// Smell: Wild flowers, sweet hay, diluted fruit infusion, floral hand soap, mineral
    // Texture: Tingling on the tip of the tongue, cool effect like drinking cough syrup, medium-to-thick texture that leaves the mouth almost immediately
    ​// Taste: Honey-and-water concoction, spiced flowers, cooked pie dough, “floral” hay, peppery potato cream soup
    ​// Body sensation: Vanished saliva, sandy effect on the tongue, quickened heartbeat, energy and desire for things to go faster, eyes awake
