I had never seen a Teaposy tea blossom before so I really had no idea what to expect when I took it out of the package. It looked like a large, oddly shaped pellet of sorts that was rolled up tight with one end that was tightly tied with a strip of tea leaf. I placed it into the glass teapot (which was very pretty!) and poured in boiling water, as directed.I was a little hesitant about pouring boiling water into a glass vessel, especially one that looked as delicate as the Teaposy pot did. It held up quite nicely, however, and as mentioned on the company's website it is heat resistant.I did not notice an immediate change in the tea 'ball' and stepped out of the room for a moment to deal with a puppy who was terrorizing my house and when I returned a few minutes later a beautiful blossom was steeping in the tea pot! The only issue I had with the Teaposy pot was that I tried to take the lid off after steeping and the handle of the lid was rather hot. It is not necessary to take off the lid, I just wanted to stick my face in there and get a better view of the blossom! The handle to the pot itself stayed completely cool!I love that the blossoms are made from white tea which has very little caffeine and is very high in antioxidants. I am also thrilled that no artificial flavors are used in scenting the tea!If I could suggest one change to the company it would be to find a more ecologically friendly way to package their teas. Each one comes vacuum sealed in a plastic type envelope and I would love some kind of packaging that was biodegradable.Overall, I was thrilled with this product and highly recommend it for anyone who is a true fan of tea!Discaimer: I was provided with one Teaposy pot and a selection of teas in order to write my review. All opinions expressed here are mine and mine alone.
