Bound tea is a "bud" of green tea leaves, inside of which are fragrant flowers. It is also called blooming tea. Among Chinese teas, it is considered the most unusual. And the point is not only in its special taste and intoxicating aroma, but also in the bewitching spectacle of a flower blooming while brewing tea.
This is an elite tea and it is not cheap. This is a real work of art. Traditionally bound tea looks like a ball or briquette. Although you can find compositions of a more bizarre form. They can be made in the form of a mushroom, heart, star or dragon.
China - the birthplace of bound tea - is full of secrets and mysteries. Here, each tea has its own legend. This trend has not bypassed the tea flower.
Of course, the exact date of the appearance of the associated tea is not known. However, historians state the fact that this type of tea has been known in China for a thousand years. It is described in Chinese chronicles as "demonstrative tea".
An ancient legend is associated with the tea flower. According to her, the emperor of the Song Dynasty loved his wife very much. When she gave him the long-awaited heir, his happiness knew no bounds. To celebrate, he ordered his subjects to create tea with a unique taste and magical aroma. Craftsmen tied tea leaves with flower buds, gave them the shape of a ball and presented them to the emperor's wife. And so the bound tea was born.
I received this tea as a gift. It is very interesting to watch the process of turning a small ball into a flower. This is magic!
I will not say anything about the taste, since I am not a fan of green tea or tea in general. I drink black tea with bergamot, and any other one seems not tasty to me ...
