Chrysanthemum tea is perfect “go to bed” tea. Calming and relaxing even after REALLY stress day. And now I prefer chrysanthemum to chamomile tea.

Flavors: Floral, Flowers, Honey
Preparation
Artichoke tea comes from Vietnamese mountains – perfect place for tea and herbs.
It has slight gentle sweet and flowery aroma. But the most important – health benefits of this tea.

Flavors: Floral, Honey, Rose
why do you say in most of your tea reviews that you taste honey and roses. I find that to be curious especially in artichoke tea and some others. I’ve had some tea with herbs from the North that is savory and I grew artichokes so you puzzle me. The flavor of rose and artichoke is miles apart. Now, floral sweet and savory can be present…and rose is spicy. So, what exactly do you mean?
OHHH! I just looked this up, sorry, it’s not TEA proper but artichoke flower (maybe) hard to tell what the dry parts are really. Kinda strange looking to me.

Artichoke “tea” is one of the most famous herbal drinks in Vietnam. First time I heard, saw and drunk this tea in Dalat (small, cozy and beautiful town if central part of Vietnamese mountains) – origin of Vietnamese coffee and tea.
About taste and flavor. You are right Artichoke and Rose – completely different and it is strange but true – beverage from Vietnamese artichoke flowers has gentle sweet flowery aroma (including slight notes of Rosebuds fragrance)
Well, since family grows artichokes in California I’ll tell them to dry the flowers and try as tea. Interesting.
My favorite tea. I always brew it with my friends.
Fragrant vietnamese black tea, a little tart but aromatic and sweet flowery-honey notes of rose buds
