A delightful flowering tea from Zhejiang Province in East China which is then transported to Guangxi and Fujian Provinces for extra processing.
Tea Description
The name of this tea translates literally as 'Marigold Jasmine'. ?Young, tender shoots of green tea are plucked and handcrafted into shape of a Chinese plum. ?Once infused in hot water the leaves unfurl to reveal a perfect golden marigold flower at the centre, from which trails a delicate string of jasmine flower buds. ?As lovely to drink as it is to admire, the flavour is light, sweet, refreshing and slightly floral.
Green Tea, marigold flowers (3%), jasmine flowers (3%).
Use a heat-proof glass or glass teapot for maximum visual effect. ?
Use 1 bulb per person. ?Boil fresh water, leave to cool for 5 minutes then pour on. ?Allow to steep for 3 minutes maximum for the perfect flavour. ?Best enjoyed without milk.
