Flora Collection
Regular price $54
Do you love Jasmin tea? If you do, this ensemble of flower-scented tea was selected for you.
Loose leaf tea scented with fresh flowers by ways of physical contact - one layer of tea, one layer of fresh flower, one layer tea, one layer flower, and so on. Tea leaves and rounds of fresh petals were repeatedly piled to ensure the fragrance permeates the tea. These batches were made using the same scenting techniques in 1890's when Taiwan exported a large amount of its scented tea. And of course, no artificial fragrance was used under our watch.
A collection of three different scented teas to outfit your moods. Brew the bright and refreshing Pomelo Four Season Spring for a sunny afternoon teatime. Or host a garden tea party with the beloved Osmanthus Baozhong for a full body flower immersion. And don't let those summer reads go without a companion - let the Rosy Black to bring a dose of romance into the storyline.
We recommend brewing these flowery teas in a porcelain or glass pot to enhance the fragrance top note. Enjoy them hot or poured over ice on a hot summer day!
