I've begun using these flowering teas after purchasing the Primula Flowering Tea Set with 40-Ounce Pot, 6 Flowering Teas, Loose Tea Variety Pack. This is the second one I've tried, and for flavor, so far this is my favorite. Each of the flowers is in a sealed foil pouch, so they remain fresh for a long time. I was impressed that each one had a "best if used by" date.

The flavor of this variety has a hint of jasmine (but just the tiniest hint) and a very light taste of peach as well. Since it is a white tea, there is a minimum amount of caffeine. Each flower makes a full 40 ounces (and can be re-used). I drink it alone, so I ended up refrigerating the remainder. It tasted wonderful the next day as an iced tea. Often, flavored teas have an aftertaste, but this did not! I enjoy my tea with a touch of sweetener, and I did add it to this tea.

The flowers vary, some are more beautiful than others, but they are all enjoyable. In this package, even at full price, each blossom is very reasonable and and fills an entire teapot (not just a cup), so I will not be reusing them unless I am making a larger amount for a group. The flowers do tend to "fall apart" if reused. .

If you do not want to purchase a special glass tea pot,a clear coffeemaker carafe can be a very nice way to allow the flower to fully open so that you can enjoy both the beauty and the tea.

What a great idea - tea that looks like a flower! It's easy to use and makes good tea. And you can reuse it 3 times within 24 hours.

I purchased this with a clear teapot as a gift for a friend in another state. She had never seen a
tea flower and has called me several times since receiving it. She can't praise it enough. It was ordered on March 7 and she recieved it on the 11th. I was so surprised at the speed in which it was delivered. Thank you for making such a memorable gift for both my friend and myself.

I really like the tea quality. My friends too appreciated.
And it's nice to watch the flower unfold.

I bought this in a package deal with the Primula Black Teapot with 3 Tea Flowers. So I effectively received 15 tea balls and a pot for $15. It was definitely worth it.

The ball that I used didn't stay on the bottom of the pot after pouring in hot water. It instead floated to the top and bloomed downwards. The tea itself is very good. It had the perfect touch of peach which was brought out even further with a little bit of sugar. I did use the ball a second time but the flavor was definitely diminished. I really can't see trying to squeeze a third pot out of it as they claim.

If you can tolerate getting a third pot out of each ball then it's a spectacular value. Fresh loose tea can run as much as 50 cents a cup depending on the type so even if you just get 6 cups per ball it's still only 21 cents a cup and a good value.

The first time I've seen this tea on TV I thought it was beautiful! Then I bought it and to my honest surprise it doesn't only look beautiful but it tastes amazing! The flavor, the smell, everything about it is great. It comes in a small vacuum package with each tea ball individually. Price is also acceptable. Overall, it is absolutely a great buy and I would recommend it.

Very nice tea, I do love watching my tea ball open into a pretty flower arrangement. Flavor is good, very mild. Nicely packaged.

Holy moly. This tea is awsome! Just like another viewer posted, I have to say this is my favorite tea also. I own the 24oz dream teaposy tea set with 2 6oz tea cups. So when others say they can't see brewing one tea 3 times, ask them what size teapot they have. It makes a difference. The aroma is breath taking. I can't get enough of it. I can taste a lot of peach and when I added 1tsp of sugar it became nirvana. I just recieved this today. Amazon added 3 extra blooming teas :-) you don't know till you try it, I highly recommend this.

This tea is really delicious. At first thought you think you're paying a fortune, but you can brew each flower 3 times. Some say 4 but this one is very mild so 3 is the limit for me. Each brew delivers great taste and just a light pick-me-up. Perfect.

i was so happy cause i got a free tea pot with it for free.
