Floral
Tea |
| Farmers knowing that tea is absorbent to aroma, they then use fresh flowers to blend with dried leaves and produce Floral Tea. They first decide the tea used, mix flowers into it evenly, and then put the mixture in closed cabinets for hours. This process of blending is repeated several times, letting the tea absorb most fragrance from flowers. Then the flowers are sorted out and only scented tea is used. Most common Floral Tea are Jasmine Mao Feng, Jasmine Silver Fur, Jasmine Chrysanthemum-shaped, Jasmine Ball-shaped, Jasmine Dragon Pearl-shaped, Fragrant Liu An, Osmanthus Liu An, Rose Black Tea and Chrysanthemum Pu Er. |
