Eight (8) blooming buds, each can be brewed up to three (3) in a large tea pot.
Smooth an satisfying green tea notes. The peach character of osmanthus comes to the force with hints of jasmine and lily. Origin: China Region: Yunnan Province Grade: Handcrafted Ingredients: Premium green tea and Lily Jasmine and Osmanthus blossoms
Yunnan, the southernmost province in the People’s Republic of China is also the country’s largest producer of flowers. The high production numbers have secured Yunnan’s position as China’s top flower producing region for more than 10 years straight. During those years, the province’s Carnations, Forget-Me-Nots, Lilies, Osmanthus and Jasmine flowers have accounted for 45% of China’s total annual floral exports. Yunnan sits directly below the Tropic of Cancer, the farthest northern latitude at which the sun can appear directly overheard, an event that occurs once a year on the 21st of June. In short, Yunnan gets a lot of direct sunlight. And, as every good schoolchild knows, flowers love the sun and lots of it. As every good tea-drinker knows, Yunnan is also famous for growing tea. So it seems only natural that given the prominence of local floral industry, tea artisans would create a tea in its honor, 3 Flower Burst. The idea behind the tea is that as it brews, it unfolds and mimics the way the lush Yunnan is also famous for growing tea. As the tea dries, the flowers are held inside the way seeds are concealed in the damp earth. Drop the tea into a glass pitcher, infuse it and watch the miraculous bloom unfold. The cup, like springtime in Yunnan is bright, with a very full green taste layered with overtones of cut peach and layered undertones of jasmine and lily perfume. Makes a perfect gift for Mother’s Day – an absolutely wonderful tea!
HOT TEA: Place one ball in your teapot and add water that is roughly 180 F / 80 C. Infuse until the ball is fully open, usually about 5 minutes. Watch the long leaves unfurl to reveal the hidden flower treasure. ICED TEA: Not generally consumed iced but if you do, (1qt / lt) Place 3 Flower Bursts pods in a heat resistant pitcher. Add 1 ¼ cups freshly boiled water. Steep 5 minutes. Quarter fill a serving pitcher with ice water. Add steeped tea and fill with ice water. Garnish with 1 opened 3 Flower Burst and sweeten to taste.
