Oh where oh where can all the floral teas be?

I understand your pain. I feel like floral teas are definitely under appreciated. Unfortunately some of my favorite bouquet-in-your-mouth floral teas are also French (Dammann Frères) and thus come with a high shipping fee. A lot of the ones I drink from there are soleflor or one floral with fruits, though.

The best bet may be the Jardin de Luxembourg (green oolong). It the most floral and a total bouquet… it has “jasmine flowers, roses petals, may flower, aloe vera, acacia, waterlily, and plum flowers”

Oh, I’m so glad I’ve met another flower tea lover. What are some of your favourite bouquet in your mouth flavours from df and other French places? There is no amount I won’t ultimately pay for my flowers in mouth experience! I have also been dying to try MF’s lilly of the valley tea, but have not been able to get myself any quite yet.

Besides Jardin de Luxembourg, I would say Jardin des Tulieries, Passion de Fleurs, and Bali from Dammann. But the most florals definitely goes to Luxembourg.

I haven’t tried too many of Mariage Frères’ floral teas but they have one called Paris-London that sounds promising.

Have you tried buying the dried flowers you like in bulk and adding them to your teas?

No, because I’m not really creative and I would screw up the proportions and I am also quite lazy. :(

I have seen just roses as tea online, but don’t remember where.

Around this time of year, a lot of companies put out special flower blends for that certain holiday, mostly rose too.

Got these dried rose petals for flavoring tea from Amazon a while ago (http://www.amazon.com/Organic-PETALS-Flavoring-Kombucha-Servings/dp/B008OHZ0WY/ref=sr_1_4?ie=UTF8&qid=1423010225&sr=8-4).

Pretty good, but didn’t taste the same as tea that’s scented/flavored with rose. One tip for boosting the floweriness is to add a drop or two of rose water

Floral lover here, and agree that they’re under appreciated. I too loved the rose violet calendula oolong.

Simpson & Vail’s violet black just doesn’t do it for me and I’ll still on the beach for a good-quality violet blend. I’ve been crossing my fingers that DF’s Violette will be the answer, if and when I eventually make such an order.

I’m still dreaming of a carnation tea.
