This is a wonderful Flowering/blooming tea! Sure it has a slight Jasmine scent but it is just enough especially for someone who doesn’t LOVE Jasmine. I made a LARGE Mug full so my first and 2nd steeps where blended together. The first steep was much darker than I thought it would be – that was a pleasant surprise. The taste was a tad green tea tasting but it also reminded me of a white tea for aftertaste. There was a bit of non-jasmine floral taste to it and even a small hint of sweetness, too! I really like this one! Thumbs up!

It sounds nice. Are you using a glass mug? I’ve only done the blooming teas in a wine glass, which looks beautiful but is not the best way to drink tea.
I add the hot water to a glass mini tea pot…and let bloom…when ready pour into a regular mug and resteep in the glass until ready to pour.
That picture is absolutely gorgeous. As soon as I get time, I think I’m going to have to do a little photographic experimentation with some glass pots and a light box.

Takgoti – Youtube has some really cool still/shots/pics and/or video for blooming teas! WAY COOL!
