Pu-erh Flower Beencha

Posted on December 21st, 2010. Written by Tony Gebely.

I’m not even sure what to call this. This is a beencha of pressed camellia sinensis flowers! Opening the wrapper I was greeted by an amazingly fresh, flowery fragrance.

When steeped, the flowers basically re-blossom and release a sweet, slightly pungent and nutty liquor.

Not sure how to steep this tea, I did a 1:30 infusion @ 195F and it was delicious.

I'm writing a full-length book on tea. No history, just practical tea information and SCIENCE!
