his green tea has a special blossoming or blooming characteristic. Each blossom is comprised of fine quality green tea hand assembled and sewn together with marigold petals and, osmanthus flowers, a flower famous for its aroma. When steeped, the green tea leaves gradually blossom, revealing the marigold and osmanthus petals floating to the surface. The flowers resemble a swirling cloud of osmanthus. The tea has a yellow hue with a pleasant light floral aroma. The taste is smooth with a lightly floral aftertaste. A glass teapot or cup such as our Loose Tea Steeper that is pictured is highly recommended for full appreciation of this tea.
