Royal Chrysanthemum

Royal Chrysanthemum | (菊花)

Our brand new batch - freshly imported from Southeast China! Now with larger, vibrant flowers (golden silk varietal), and stronger, traditional chrysanthemum flavor.

A beloved East Asian symbol of Autumn and nobility, this tea brews a refreshing cup reminiscent of wild florals, lemon, honey & pine.

Made with full, mature blooms - each pouch offers traditional charm and a veritable mini-garden that unfurls in your teapot. A lovely gift for anyone...including yourself! :)

We were so happy to get this shipment in; not only is chrysanthemum one of Moonlit's favorite, traditional teas, but it also just feels really nice handing people a "bouquet" of golden flowers.

For a standard 10oz house cup, we recommend steeping five flowers in 190°F water for 4 minutes. Stir gently if needed to submerge the dry blossoms

Our newest harvest has hardier flowers that may prefer 212°F for 3 minutes instead - but will be instructed as such on your Moonlit bag! Steep 1 minute longer each subsequent steep.
