Black Gold Pearls
(Rich black tea experience)
Hand-rolled black tea pearls that slowly unfurl in hot water. Produces a deep amber liquor with a smooth, malty flavor and a full-bodied finish. This is a true tea experience with no florals — rich, grounded, and satisfying.
Ingredients: Black tea (Feng Qing, Yunnan)
Caffeine: Moderate (black tea)
Amber Blossom
(For people who want aroma + drama)
A striking, vertical bloom featuring warm-toned florals that create one of the most aromatic cups in the collection. Osmanthus adds a lightly sweet, almost honeyed note, while lily brings a soft floral depth over a delicate white tea base.
Ingredients: Orange lily flower, osmanthus flower, Silver Needle white tea
Caffeine: Low (white tea)
Eastern Jasmine
(For purists and minimalists)
The most straightforward and restrained option. This tea focuses entirely on jasmine over fine white tea, producing a clean, lightly floral cup with no competing flavors. Elegant, simple, and tea-forward.
Ingredients: Jasmine flowers, Silver Needle white tea
Caffeine: Low (white tea)
Floral Offering
(The most complex floral blend)
A full, open bloom combining jasmine, lily, and osmanthus for a layered floral profile. This variety leans more aromatic and expressive than the others, while still staying smooth and balanced on the palate.
Ingredients: Jasmine flowers, orange lily flower, osmanthus flowers, Silver Needle white tea
Caffeine: Low (white tea)
Golden Insight
(Balanced and symmetrical — visual + flavor harmony)
A carefully layered bloom that opens evenly in the pot. The flavor is mild, clean, and well-balanced, with soft floral notes that don’t overpower the white tea base. A good middle-ground option for first-time blooming tea drinkers.
Ingredients: Jasmine flowers, globe amaranth flower, yellow chrysanthemum, Silver Needle white tea
Caffeine: Low (white tea)
Jasmine Heart
(Most visually striking centerpiece)
A rounded bloom with a vivid red amaranth center surrounded by lighter florals. Visually bold in the pot, but still delicate in flavor, with gentle jasmine notes and a smooth white tea finish.
Ingredients: Jasmine flowers, globe amaranth flower, yellow chrysanthemum, Silver Needle white tea
Caffeine: Low (white tea)
Rising Lily
(Slow reveal, best for sharing or multiple steeps)
This tea opens gradually rather than all at once, making it ideal for longer sessions or multiple infusions. The flavor remains light and consistent across steeps, with a soft floral character that doesn’t fade quickly.
Ingredients: Jasmine flowers, globe amaranth flower, yellow chrysanthemum, Silver Needle white tea
Caffeine: Low (white tea)
