These blossoms are handmade works of ART! Using ONLY premium Chinese tea crafted by a tea master and flowers from surrounding gardens, artists tie all of the leaves together with the flowers in a way that allows them to "bloom" in your stem. Because these are premium tea tips you are able to enjoy a longer steeping time without the risk of your tea turning bitter. The first infusion shows the bloom, is aromatic, gorgeous and meditative. However, a second infusion could be enjoyed simply for the then delicate flavor.
