Osmanthus: A Fragrant Treasure

Our Osmanthus, also known as "Guifa," is sourced from Guilin, a city renowned for its abundance of sweet-smelling Osmanthus trees. The name "Guilin" literally translates to "Forest of Sweet Osmanthus," highlighting the city's deep connection to this fragrant flower.

The history of Osmanthus tea dates back to the Ming Dynasty in China, where fragrant Osmanthus flowers were first infused into tea. This delightful blend of sweet Osmanthus flowers and black tea has significant cultural significance. The Osmanthus flower is closely associated with the Chinese Mid-Autumn Festival and is a symbol of love, beauty, prosperity and good fortune.

Osmanthus has a wide range of uses beyond its beauty and fragrance. In traditional Asian cuisine, the flowers are often used to infuse teas, desserts, and other delicacies with their unique floral flavor. Osmanthus tea, in particular, is cherished for its aromatic and soothing qualities, making it a popular choice for relaxation and wellness. In addition to its culinary uses, Osmanthus has also been used in traditional herbal medicine. The flowers are believed to aid digestion, reduce inflammation, and promote overall well-being. This has made Osmanthus a valuable ingredient in natural remedies and holistic health practices.

Taste the Quality

Our Osmanthus tea is crafted from the finest Osmanthus flowers, harvested at the peak of their fragrance during the autumn Moon Festival season. This brief window of opportunity, lasting only nine days, with just three days of optimal aroma and taste, ensures that our tea captures the full essence of the flower. The delicate flowers are carefully handpicked and then slowly dried over 14-16 hours to preserve their vibrant yellow color and exquisite aroma. By using only the highest quality Osmanthus flowers, we create a tea that is both aromatic and flavorful, offering a truly unique and delightful drinking experience.

Great for both hot and iced

I love this tea both hot and iced. When it’s hot, the floral notes from the osmanthus are more pronounced and relaxing, perfect for unwinding in the evening. I also tried it iced, and it’s just as good—refreshing and flavorful without any bitterness. This tea is incredibly versatile and has quickly become a staple in my tea collection!

Lovely Aroma and Taste

The first thing I noticed was the amazing aroma when I opened the bag. The osmanthus scent is floral and slightly fruity, which pairs wonderfully with the richness of black tea. It’s smooth, slightly sweet, and there’s no bitterness at all. This is a tea I look forward to every day, especially when I want something comforting yet unique.

Unique and Memorable

I’ve tried a lot of teas, but this osmanthus black tea really stands out. It’s fragrant and floral but keeps the boldness of black tea, which is rare to find. The scent of osmanthus fills the room when I brew it, and the taste is subtly sweet with a gentle floral note that lingers. I’ll definitely be stocking up on this one.

beautifully floral and smooth

this tea is a treat! I didn’t expect osmanthus and black tea to go so well together, but the combination is heavenly. The floral notes from the osmanthus are very light and natural, making each sip feel smooth and refreshing. It’s not just a drink but a relaxing experience. I’ve even shared it with friends, and they loved it too.

My New Favorite Morning Tea

As a daily black tea drinker, I was looking for something with a little extra flavor, and this osmanthus black tea has been perfect. The floral notes are present but not overpowering, and it gives the tea an almost honey-like sweetness. It’s such a refreshing start to the day. I highly recommend it to anyone who wants to try something different but still enjoys the richness of black tea.
