You try stuffing 6g of fluffy white tea in a 100ml gaiwan. (Chuan Zibai Sichuan white tea from White2Tea.)

Wow, White2Tea's 2021 "Blood Moon" has really furry leaves... Wait, their "Moon Bear" "white" raw puerh tea also had similar furry buds... I suspect this is the same material processed as a shade dried white. So, if you liked "Moon Bear", this might be another tea to try.

Sometimes a Yueguangbai style yunnan white just hits the spot. 2030 Nightlife mini from White2Tea.

Looking for something else, I came across this misplaced sample of 2018 Shou Mei White tea from One River Tea. Still think it is a great white tea, (despite being slightly nibbled by the nefarious garage denizens).

2019 Milan White from White2Tea. Leaves usually used to make Mi Lan Dancong Oolong processed as a sun dried white tea. An interesting one time experiment that illustrates how much processing style influences the flavor of the finished tea. I.e., in a blind tasting it is unlikely you would identify this as tea from oolong varietals, rather as a slightly unusual white tea.

Tools of the trade. If you drink compressed teas, you need something to tease them apart. If you're going to splurge on a dedicated tool, this tea knife from Pu-erh.sk is a good choice.
