Review: Bai Mao Hou
TouThe is really a fabulous little shop, dedicated entirely to tea and tea accessories. The staff are very friendly and will be sure to point you in the right direction, whether its for a gift or you are a die hard tea addict. There's a little cafe area out the back of the store where you can buy a cup of any tea they have in store.
Is this tea really called white haired monkey? I'm not sure, probably the french have some special name for it. This early harvest tea from Fuijan could be mistaken for a white tea, especially looking at its leaves. I didnt go wild about the smell of this one but in the cup it was pleasant with some sweet end notes.
