Teaposy Celebrate Gift Set Review

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.

Primula Flowering Tea Set with 40-Ounce Pot with Glass Lid Review

I purchased this set for my sister who loves tea even more than I do. I loved her set so much I went back and bought one for me!The set includes a lovely borosilicate tea pot which makes it versatile.You can use it in your microwave, but you probably won't.The heating and pouring of the water are essential elements of the ritual of tea making.

When you pour the hot water over the hand-tied tea balls, you will witness an enchanting display.The tea balls slowly open into delightful flowers. The pot and infuser are perfectly clear to show off your tea and allow you to easily witness the unfolding of your tea flower.I don't bother with the infuser because the tea balls shed very little during the brewing.

Best of all, the tea is delicious.The green tea flavor is robust (through 3 potential infusions) and the jasmine is very subtle.I have since tried other brands but Primula has struck the perfect balance between flavor and beauty.I strongly recommend this set to anyone who loves tea and the soothing ritual of brewing tea.

By the way, you should try not to boil the water you use for infusing green teas.The flavor will be negatively affected by boiling hot water.Try to catch the water just before it boils.Small bubbles will start to rise. That's the perfect time to remove the water from the heat and brew your tea.

Happy sipping!

Product Description:
Take a moment to enjoy some of life's simple pleasures and enjoy a unique tea time with the Primula Flowering Tea Set, which includes a 40-ounce clear glass tea pot and a canister of flowering teas containing 12 different green tea flowers with jasmine flavor. The durable tea pot holds 5 cups of liquid (40 ounces) and is made out of hand-blown borosilicate glass--the same glass used in laboratories. It is both strong and resistant to temperature extremes, and is also microwave and dishwasher safe. Simply add loose tea in the included infuser and pour through hot water. Removing the infuser is the ideal way to watch Primula's flowering teas in bloom and make tea.
Rather than use tea bags, Primula flowering teas are made by artisans in China and are comprised of hand sewn AA grade Green Tea with all natural flowers. The green tea is blended 5 times with jasmine to make for an aromatic scent. The flowers come in a sealed foil with a 2-1/2-year shelf life, and each flower can be used three times within a 24 hour period. Since the tea pot holds 5 cups of tea, each flower can make 15 cups. All of Primula Flowering Teas are made from the finest all natural tea leaves, but it is not certified organic, and it is inspected and certified by CIQ, a special Chinese governing agency that works with the approval of the FDA.
