white ambrosia
Steep for 2-4 minutes, 195°F
The simple process of plucking and then simply drying tea leaves to create this delicate category makes white teas a favorite focus of many health minded professionals. Certainly there are those who profess that white tea, renowned for its high antioxidant levels, is the most beneficial of all tea types. There are also many claims that the caffeine content of white teas is below that of other tea types (black, green, oolong).
A few things we’re sure of are as follows: white teas are very high in antioxidants, tend to be delicate in flavor and astringency and therefore easy on an empty stomach, because they are usually steeped in cooler water (180º F) they can have lowered caffeine content.
"The aroma of this tea is intoxicating"
"The aroma of this tea is intoxicating, with heavy sweet vanilla tones and strong black tea. The flavor is even more delightful – again with very creamy vanilla notes derived from Madagascar Vanilla Beans. The vanilla is the most prominent flavor, however the Chinese black tea base is so strong that you can taste the black tea along with the vanilla cream. The coconut makes the tea smoother, and gives it a strong tropical note. A beautiful tea expression"

This is an amazing tea!
As I am making my way through all of the Tea Forte' dessert teas, I am finding that each one is better than the next. I usually have to add honey or cream to my tea so that it doesn't either bore or overpower me depending on the variety. This tea has just the right amount of natural sweetness and such a wide array of aromas and flavors that adding something would somehow take away from the experience.

I fell for this tea the moment I smelled the flavor! Then I tasted it and I know I want to have it again. It is wonderful and very soothing.
