Osmanthus Green
TeaCha's Notes:
This is my "go-to" tea at spring time when everything is in bloom. I find that the Osmanthus blossom helps dry up my sinuses but don't take my word for it, always check with your doctor for health benefits.
$2.00 – $46.99
This light green tea sprinkled with Osmanthus blossoms has a slightly sweet and refreshing liquor rounding out with a warm fruity apricot finish. The blossoms also add a wisp of tang to the liquor. The floral fragrance is delicate and not overpowering. Crisp and inviting hot. Refreshing when iced during the summer months.
Osmanthus blossoms are added to the tea leaves and allowed to rest to absorb the luscious velvety fragrance. In traditional Chinese medicine the popular Osmanthus blossom has many health benefits.

I really wanted to try this tea for the (possible) health benefits, and the description sounded delicious. Unfortunately my pallet didn’t pick up the apricot at all. For me personally, this tasted like a very vegetal green tea. The strong grassy flavor wasn’t my cup of tea so it took a good deal of honey for me to drink it. If you are someone who enjoys the more vegetal teas, you will love this one.

After complaining to René about my allergy meds not working, she suggested Osmanthus Green tea and it has really helped! Now I’m drinking it when my eyes are weepy too. It’s so nice to be natural!! Thank you René!
