White Tea

Has anyone drank this? I just tried it, Tetley Brand and it's surprisingly good. Kinda light and not too heavy on the palate.

Brown water is always.... interesting to taste.

lol. Some places back home you can't drink the water. that's no fun.

What does white tea look like? (so I know what to look for at the store)

Lise · Sep 17 07 05:25

I had some a few years ago (Trade Joe's). It tasted like fragrent water.

I prefer red tea. Like a good sturdy tea, plus red tea is caffeine-free, unlike green and white teas which have caffiene or have to go through a decaffeinated process to be caffeine-free. Makes great iced tea too (the American, non-Southern way).

Not come across this one, I'll start looking around - it sounds interesting.

I like red tea, too. Althought I don't like the flavoured Rooibos.

Me too. I prefer the plain red tea; none of those flavours like lemon, ginger, vanilla, or whatever. Prez Choice makes an excellent plain one.

Thanks, wyk I'll go there and check it out.

Is Red Tea a brand name or is it a type of tea?

It is a type of tea. LM was right in calling it rooibos. It is a herb, but a tea. [A href="vny!://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Rooibos"]vny!://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Rooibos[/A]

This is the tea I drink, not only coz it's good-tasting but also cheap! I find that no matter how long I steep it (i.e. for iced tea), it never turns bitter like white or green tea does.
