Chrysanthemum flowers have been used as a digestion aid, and with beta carotene, to help with the eyes. The other folk uses are many, and while we do not support any of these claims, we have many customers who do, so judge for yourself. If nothing else, if you like citrus, you might find a nice, green tea to add to your tea closet.

First tea of today is a green tea. China dragon with chrysanthemum, this tea is interesting and I struggled a little brewing it. It requires a very delicate brew with 175 and a short steep with alot of leaf to really bring out its flavor.
This time using a glass teapot to bleed off the heat, 175 water and 45 second steep. I used a bit more leaf this time as previously when I used hotter water, I got very intense bitterness and astringency, the same with longer steep times.
This time however I got a wonderful clear just barely yellow tea, that was light sweet, with citrus and lemon flavors and aroma’s and just a hint of astringency and vegetal notes. There was almost no bitterness.
There is a nice mouthfeel and you can almost feel the floral scents coming off it, but its not overpowering. I like this tea, its sweet , citrus and floral, but you still taste the astringent vegetal tones through it all.
I recommend this to anyone who likes a little sweet, citrus and floral notes to their green tea.
Flavors: Astringent, Citrus, Lemon, Sweet, Vegetal
