Old Tree "Aged Cha Hua" Tea Flowers Brick

Not the leaf, but the flower

This Tea Flower Brick makes a very interesting tea indeed! Steep in a teapot for several minutes or longer, as it won't get bitter. Reminiscent of chamomile in its fruity-grassy sweetness, with a very slight smokiness. This is a very pleasant alternative to caffeinated - or herbal - teas.

Very declicious low-caffeine tea

This tea was amazing. The flavor is light and slightly sweet. I really enjoy having it in the late afternoon when I really do not want the caffeine. Highly recommend giving it a try.

Super Delicious

It's sweet enough for sure; deep dark wildflower honey/baklava depth of flavor with a balanced backbone of undiscernible bitterness for structure. The taste is lasting. At its age, I think it has benefitted from its storage. Hard to guess. Somewhat easy enough to break apart carefully with a puer knife into small flakes, it's quite forgiving as it is brewed. I prepare it up at the suggested 200°F 3gms/100ml – 1:00,20,20,25,30… for 10 infusions gongfu or 200°F 3gms/300ml – 3:00, 3:30, 4:00. The western brewing is perfectly easy with no difference in taste. I like drinking it warm, though cold brew is delicious at 10gms 1/2 gallon/2L. I like is so much, I purchased a brick after brewing up a sample, though I haven't tried blending it with teas yet.
