The Tao of Tea Rose Petal Black Tea Loose Leaf 4-Ounce Tin and Lavender Herbal Tea Loose Leaf 2.0 Ounce Tin -Packaging May Vary-

The Tao of Tea, Rose Petal Black Tea, Loose Leaf, 4-Ounce Tin (B001EPPE1K) Blended in late summer when the roses are in full bloom and at their most fragrant, Rose Petal Black, also known as ‘Meigui Hong Cha’, combines rich Keemun tea and red rose petals. Keemun is a small leaf tea from the Qimen county of Anhui province, best known as the main ingredient for English Breakfast blends. Although there is a whole universe of rose varieties and flavors, we believe the ideal petals for combining with Keemun come from the red roses native to Qimen county. They have a distinct sweet, cooling aroma that lends great balance to the blend. Rose Petal Black pairs well with rich and slightly spicy foods. It also makes a delicious iced tea. One of our favorite recipes is to prepare a sauce from Rose Petal Black and serve it over vanilla ice cream.

It has a long history as a healing herb – Romans scented their baths with it (in fact, “lavare” means to wash in Latin) and the Tibetans still make an edible lavender butter to use as part of a traditional treatment for nervous disorders.
