Inspired by the Japanese Festival of Cherry Blossoms, this tea typifies the excitement of spring’s arrival. Made from the youngest tender leaves, our blend combines the delicate white tea with the flavour of cherries.
Whatever the weather, sip a cup of this fragrant tea and celebrate the changing seasons.

Another Alana/Secret Santa gift – thank you! The dry leaf is composed of long, light green leaves, and carries a light cherry bouquet. Not as fuzzy as some white tea leaves I’ve seen, but still very delicate looking. At three minutes I’ve got a light golden brown liquor with a mild cherry aroma. The taste is cherry, but this first try is reminding me a little of cherry cough drops more than the fruit. I may need to play around with this one a bit to see if I can bring that out more.
Woe, for I am on my last tea bag of this, out of a sampler my dear friend gave me as a present. Dry, it has a subtle floral, almost fruity smell, and brewed, it gets a little bit stronger, but not overpowering. The taste is much like the smell – somewhere between floral and fruit. I definitely need to get some more – winter’s coming on, and who doesn’t need some blossoms to see them through the dreary snow? ;-)
Light refreshing white tea with a subtle cherry flavour. The scent of cherry is quite strong before brewing. Afterwards the scent and flavour is more subtle but I think it works well.
I have found it’s best to steep for around 2-3 minutes, any longer and the taste can become slightly bitter.
One of mine and my fiances personal favourites!
At first, this tea has a very strong sweet smell. It can, in fact, be a little overpowering. After steeping, the smell is a bit gentler, but the taste is a little unimpressive. It remains sweet, but the white tea seems to somewhat disappear. Continued steeping just results in it being rather bitter On the whole, it makes a pleasant enough iced tea (the tea flavour sharpens slightly when chilled), but is somewhat lacking as a hot tea.
