Tea flowers, also known as blooming tea or flowering tea, are a fascinating combination of flavour and visual experience. Originally from China, these skilfully tied tea bundles have gained popularity worldwide. In hot water, they unfurl into beautiful blossoms that not only impress visually, but also offer a variety of flavours.
A tea flower consists of high-quality tea, usually green, white or black tea, which is skilfully tied around an edible flower. This combination of tea and blossom unfolds into a magnificent flower when infused in hot water. The production requires great craftsmanship, as each bundle is tied by hand.
The art of tea flowers dates back to the Chinese dynasty, where they were valued as a luxurious gift and ritual drink. Over the centuries, this tradition has evolved and found its way to the Western world, where today it is particularly appreciated for its aesthetic and flavourful qualities.
