Snow Chrysanthemum tea is a rare and highly sought after high altitude (3000 meters) flower tea from the Kunlun Mountains in Xinjiang province.  The tea is picked and sun-dried once a year then hand-sorted into various grades.  We offer only the highest grade available!

Our Snow Chrysanthemum Buds are picked while still buds and then dried in the high altitude sun to cure them. The aroma of the buds is thick and pungent.  Sweet and floral.  The brewed tea is sweet, honey-like with a light flower and cooling mint-like taste.  The tea soup is gold-red and the buds can be infused 8 to 10 times if brewed gong fu style.

A lovely tea with strong sweet and spiced flavor, it can be brewed alone or with other teas (like ripe pu-erh or black tea).  It's a great tea to drink after dinner and has no caffeine.

A highly enjoyable drink.  Try mixing with ripe pu-erh or black tea for a lovely gong fu experience!

You need to store this airtight and keep in a cool and dry place to keep it fresh!

I recommend the snow yellow

"I recommend the snow yellow chrysanthemum tea from Yunnan Sourcing. This is a quality product that I will reorder."

Cheryl S. (5/5)

"Excellent tea. I bought the same tea in Bangkok’s Chinatown and I could not find anything like that in Australia. After some searching, I’ve found Yunnan Sourcing Tea Shop online and decided to order. I’ve found that same excellent tea again from Yunnan Sourcing Tea Shop. The delivery was truly impressive. I’ve placed the order on late Saturday, Monday the goods were packed and early Thursday I recieved them in Sydney, Australia. Thumbs up!"

Caffeine Free, Full Flavor Infusion

"I have been a tea enthusiast for years but only recently discovered this delicious caffeine free herb. I often drink it at night when I’m craving a cup of tea but don’t need any more caffeine. It has a complex flavor profile that’s totally satisfying. And I love that it’s from the Kunlun Mtns. where there is such an illustrious history."

Steve P. (4/5)

Spicy, delicious.

"These buds are strongly flavoured, spicy with a hint of ginger. Diluting the soup and resteeping several times, adding a little milk to make a wonderful relaxing brew."

Carol M. (5/5)

An absolute favorite

"These floral buds have what I can only describe as a "zippy" flavor. The brew exists in a space between minty and spiced, and it always invokes a feeling of an autumn wind for me. I love it most when adding a few buds to another tea: just a few buds in a bright green tea for a very fresh tasting blend, or a few more when adding to a dark black tea to bring a forward flavor to an otherwise mellow brew. On their own, I find these flowers lack depth of flavor. However, I have had success in blending these with other floral ingredients to make well-rounded caffeine free tisanes that go well with evening desserts."

Q&A

What temperature water (Celsius) would you recommend if brewing Gong Fu style? Thanks
90C
What are the brewing times for this in a 100ml gaiwan?
Depends on how many grams of flowers you use. I would use 6 grams and keep the steeps very short at first.
