From Mandala Tea

Organically grown green tea with a twist! Scented with osmanthus flowers, the leaves have been imbued with the rich and pleasant smell, producing an aromatic and flavorful brew. Osmanthus brings strong aromas of apricot and peach and your green tea experience will be enhanced for it. Brew in glass so you can watch the dance of the small yellow petals of osmanthus flower.

Naturally sweet, we highly recommend using water temperatures between 160 and 175ºF. Try three or four steepings at one to two minutes each.

Rich in antioxidants, ostmanthus is also said to boost lung health and aid in digestion.

Free sample yay.

Light and mild tasting tea. Sweet, lots of stonefruit notes (apricot, peach). It’s very delicate, smooth, almost creamy mouth feeling. I didn’t know the health benefits of osmanthus until I just looked it up. I would say health benefits or not, this is a delightful, smooth, floral apricot tea. Lung health, sedative effects, detoxifies, appetite suppression and more. The green tea base carries the osmanthus perfectly. I “think” I’ve only had osmanthus oolong and this is my first green tea base. Not sure though. I have only tried a few osmanthus teas but they tend to be a little too sweet for me and this one is not. It’s a naturally sweet taste and the green tea base is very smooth. As I progressed, it became more and more floral (not perfumey) but the apricots and peaches remained through the rest of the infusions.

Porcelain gaiwan, 6g, 175F, 5 sec rinse, 8 steeps: 20s, 25s, 30s, 35s, 40s, 50s, 60s. 2m.

derk, it’s brand new. It’s in their March 2019 new arrivals. I ordered their new Roasted Colored Species but didn’t know about this till the sample. I wish I got the Dark Star, limited edition but didn’t see that either when I made my order, doh. lol
