A short story

The history of tea dates back to 2700 BC in China. According to a mythical tale, a hero of Chinese mythology named Sheng Nong, recommended his disciples to drink only hot water to purify themselves. A few tea leaves that had fallen into his hot water would have been enough to allow him to abandon himself to the powers of this fragrant beverage.

The principle of scenting teas with freshly plucked flower petals, or with natural essences is a Chinese ancestral tradition. The same goes for fruit-flavoured teas.

Tasting

We take tea ; we drink it or simply sip it.

The tea flower reveals all its richness and delicacy when it is prepared in a transparent glass teapot with a 90°C heat. Indeed, there are a few rules of tea preparation and tasting to follow.

Concerning the moment of tea tasting, there are no particular rules. However, it is important to know that tea is composed of theine, similar to caffeine, so it can stop some people falling asleep.

We advise you to enjoy your flower tea at Tea Time in the afternoon with succulent shortbreads, a traditional Scottish biscuit.
