Açaí White Tea from Two Leaves and a Bud


Acai White Tea from Two Leaves and a Bud

Two Leaves and a Bud describe this tea as having a smooth velvety light floral top notes, with a hint of cream nodding at a rich fruity finish, and I think I would have to concur with that description.  Truly, this is a high quality white tea, and the white tea base is what makes this tea truly delicious.

In fact even with the Acai berries blended with this tea, the silver needle white tea is the most prominent flavor.  Subtle and light in true white tea fashion, the flavor notes may be difficult for the untrained palate to truly distinguish.  However even the most inexperienced tea drinker can detect the crisp fresh flavor of the tea, which makes for the perfect base to blend with the refreshing light flavor of the Açaí berries, which have their own unique flavor which is somewhat tart and not very berry-like, more like a grassy, grainy flavor.  However you can’t really taste the berries too much in this blend as it is an accent to the white tea…more like window-dressing for the health benefits of the Açaí berries than for the flavor profile!

Two Leaves and a Bud describes this tea as:

Special harvest long whole-leaf tea leaves and buds create this super light but full tasting white tea. Light enough in the cup to be called “white” with nutritious tropical acai berries to round out a great cuppa’! Acai berries are berries grown on special Amazonian palm trees, harvested in the rain forests of Brazil. The rich taste is a distinct combination of berry flavor and subtle chocolate. The berries are high in anti-oxidants, amino acids and essential fatty acids which aid in fighting off cancer and other diseases as well as sharpen mental focus.

Ingredients:
Organic silver needle white tea, conventional acai berries, natural flavor

This tea is one of the healthiest teas I’ve had the chance to review, short of Matcha which I consider to be the epitome of healthy teas.  Because of the addition of the Açaí berry to white tea, which is already filled with antioxidants, you get a delicious health-boost from this tasty tea as well!  This tea is perfect almost any time of day – I think it’s best served hot as it would make a pretty weak iced tea.  However I will say this is one of the best white teas I’ve had the pleasure of tasting!
