Blossom Into April
It is clear that April has arrived with its unpredictable weather patterns and longer days! There doesn't feel like a more suited tea than our handcrafted, small batch Westholme blend, Blossom, to bring some warmth and love to the entire month of April. A gentle cup you can consistently count on.
Two beautiful Chinese teas come together in this floral blend: White Peony (Bai Mu Dan), a white tea named for its floral notes, and Jasmine tea, a well-known green tea that has been oxidized between layers of fresh jasmine blossoms. The steep has a lovely natural sweetness and gentle astringency, rounded by the delicate aroma of rose petals. The result is an elegant tea with a bouquet of floral notes, and a gentle cup with a pleasant, almost imperceptible astringency.
Excellent hot or iced (using the cold steep method).
How to enjoy a cup of Blossom ::
- Scoop Blossom into a teapot or tea press. We recommend 2 grams/1 Teaspoon per cup
- Bring water to 90/95ºC and pour over the loose tea
- Time the steep for 3-5 minutes or longer depending on your preferred strength
