Blooming tea turns a teapot into a small stage: this tin holds five hand-tied tea flowers, each one individually sealed. Placed in hot water, the unassuming ball slowly opens and releases the blossoms tied inside. What remains is a mild green tea and a floating bouquet in the glass. The tea is made in Sri Lanka.

The tin contains five different tea flowers. Mao feng green tea is the base of each one, combined with blossoms such as globe amaranth, lily, calendula and jasmine in varying mixes. One variety relies on green tea and calendula alone, others bring jasmine blossom along. Because every ball is sealed on its own, aroma and shape stay intact until you brew it. At 130 g in total, the decorative tin needs no extra wrapping.

Each tea flower is a firm ball of tea leaves with dried blossoms tied into the centre. Take it out of its seal, place it in a glass teapot or a large heat-resistant glass and pour hot water over it. Over the next few minutes the leaves loosen, drift apart and reveal the blossom at the core.

The infusion itself stays mild and floral, carried by the Mao feng green tea. Every tea flower is made for more than one brew: the blossom stays open and the flavour becomes a little gentler with each further infusion, so one ball gives you several cups.

Everything that comes in the tin:

  • Contents: 5 different tea flowers, each individually sealed
  • Flower 1: Mao feng green tea, globe amaranth, calendula, jasmine blossom

  • Flower 3: Mao feng green tea, calendula blossom
  • Multiple infusions: every tea flower is intended for several brews
  • Weight: 130 g
  • Made in Sri Lanka
  • Decorative tin, ready to give as it is

Blooming tea turns a cup of tea into a moment everyone looks up for. At afternoon tea with friends, at brunch or as a calm evening ritual, the unfurling is the real performance and the tea is the reward that follows.

As a present, the tin suits tea fans, hosts and anyone who enjoys trying something new. With five different tea flowers inside, the curiosity lasts over several tea sessions.

  • Serve the tea flower in front of your guests, the blooming is the best conversation starter.
  • Use water just below boiling point, as is usual for green tea, so the blossom unfurls evenly.
  • Good cold too: brew it, let it cool and serve over ice cubes as iced tea.
  • Keep the remaining balls in the closed tin, somewhere cool and dry.

How do I use a tea flower? Take it out of its seal, place it in a glass teapot or a large heat-resistant glass and pour hot water over it. After a few minutes the blossom has opened.

Can I infuse a tea flower several times? Yes, every tea flower is intended for several brews. The blossom stays open and the tea becomes a little gentler with each infusion.

What does the tea taste like? Mild and floral. Mao feng green tea is the base, the tied-in blossoms add a fine note, and two of the described tea flowers also contain jasmine.

Do I really need a glass teapot? No, any heat-resistant vessel works. Glass simply lets you watch the blooming from every side.

Is the tin suitable as a gift? Yes, the decorative tin with five different tea flowers can be handed over as it is, also instead of a bunch of flowers.
