A Captivating Floral Symphony, highly recommend~

I bought this during the tea tasting event hosted by ZhaoTea, and it was an absolute delight! The distinct aroma of pekoe filled the air as soon as I opened the tea package. From the very first sip, I was amazed by the nectar fragrance. The tea's refreshing and sweet taste creates a beautiful harmony, leaving a lasting impression.

I find this tea to be perfect for both personal indulgence and hosting guests. I have tried both hot brewing and cold brewing, both are clean, fresh and sweet. The pure taste of the tea transports me to the essence of spring, evoking a sense of rejuvenation and tranquility.

Feel like this tea has raised the bar for my tea-drinking experience LOL. The quality and craftsmanship evident in every sip make it a standout among other teas on the market. I'm grateful to have discovered this gem and can't wait to explore more of ZhaoTea's offerings!
