Tea tasting: Adagio's Snowbud Tea

Adagio describes its Snowbud white tea as follows: "White tea from the Fujian province of China. An airy, light tea, which yields a cup worthy of its name: very delicate body, with a clean, barely sweet aroma and effervescent texture."   It is all of these things.  I also get a grassy flavor with a nice clean mouth feel.  It's a great palate-cleansing tea.

A little bit of good honey makes the brew light, sunny and golden.  Over-sweetening would kill the subtlety of flavor that makes this tea special.
