I first heard about white tea from a friend but even upon hearing about it, I couldn't find white tea in grocery stores here in the Philippines. Green Tea is much more common here. When I went to visit him in Australia in February this year, I was able to try the white tea. I like it as an alternative to green tea even though I didn't know much about it yet. When I left Australia in late March, I was not able to buy white tea.
Two weeks ago, I went out with my cousin and mom's friend as I had run out of green tea so I decided to go to a grocery store to buy green tea and cranberry juice. I took one box of Twining's Green Tea with Lemon (it's always been my favourite). In looking for other items, I passed by an area where tea products were also displayed, only difference was there was white tea in it! I was so happy to have found white tea here. 
I read up again online on the benefits of white tea. It does have the same benefits of green tea but three times stronger. This is the article I found regarding its benefits: http://www.whiteteacentral.com/whiteteaweightloss.html

I don't know if you will like it, but I know for sure it is definitely worth a try.
Yes, green tea does have the strong taste that is why I like the green tea with lemon, the lemon neutralizes its taste.
