I know it’s been a while. I went on vacation for a week and have another short one coming up in a few more weeks. In the mean time I did receive my sample of the tea blossom “Let Love Bloom” in the mail. I only yesterday got to try it out.
In order to see the full bloom well, you really do need a glass teacup or enough water to submerge the full bloom all at once. My teapot wasn’t full enough, but you can still get the idea.
This one has a light flavor and shouldn’t be steeped too long or it will become bitter. I enjoyed the calming feeling of the tea. It finished nicely, too. I give this one 4 1/2 cups, only missing 1/2 a cup since it wasn’t as bold a flavor as I would have expected.





Full blown pictures behind the cut from start to finish:

I recently watched Marie Antoinette (awful movie) and really like the scene where they made that kind of tea.
