Creano Blooming Tea Sampler in a Classy Gift Box to Try - White Tea - Gift for Women, Mom, Tea Lovers - 6 Pieces (Pack of 1)

The pricing is pretty fair, mainly because it seems difficult to find a company that does white tea blooming balls that aren’t infused with so much green tea. In a separate order, I got this brands’ teapot (about 17oz- good for 2 8oz cups or 8.5… if that matters), it fits under my Keurig perfectly so my hopes and dreams were to use the blooming tea with the pot and Keurig instead of needing to boil water or get an electric kettle (which will be here in 2 days). The tea ball or tea leaves did open up but the flowers themselves never opened/ bloomed. I figured it wasn’t hot enough (don’t put it in microwave- I’m not saying I did that) but it was still a very great taste, even though I steeped it longer than 10 mins, as directed, and might have put it in the microwave thinking that would help but it didn’t work out- in fact, it started closing back into a ball.. For my next trick, I decided to get some warmer water to a rolling boil and then pour it over (this was a day after it had been stored in the fridge- I did store it correctly); however only one of out of the 3 little buds from the jasmine tea ball opened this time- progress. I figured, maybe I should have done that in the first place instead of only using the Keurig… The tea tastes great for it’s second brew. Fun fact: white tea apparently gets better with age and the younger they are the more resistant to heat they are, something along those lines. The lighter the leaves the younger and vice versa so the temperature might matter for these particular teas to “bloom”. I learned this after googling why you shouldn’t put them in the microwave. To clarify, it was in the teapot with water, I didn’t just put it in the microwave. 4 stars overall because the tea taste pretty great, and seems to be good to go for a 3rd use- again, I’m using a 17oz teapot from this brand so that would be about 4 cups I’ve managed to make out of the 1 tea ball so far. Although I haven’t used it a 3rd time, I am pretty sure I may not go for a 4th- that’s most likely because I let the first round sit too long… So I assume I would have gotten a 4th use out of the first pack- I hope this review helps you learn from my mistake. After a week or so I’ve had time to try the other bloom balls and after 3, I can confirm only 1 opened/ bloom and looked close to the package (marigold). I can also confirm that I have been able to brew the balls in my 17 oz tea pot 5 times and is about 10 8oz cups, so far. On the 5th steep, it still has good color and flavor (picture of tea after 5th use). I’ve only let the flower tea sit in the hot water for 15 mins for the time and under 10 mins the next few times. After that, I take it out of the pot and store them in the fridge for later. Because I can get multiple uses out of 1 tea ball, that deserves a 5.

I thought the flowers bloomed in good time. About 15 minutes. Received today and had one tea. Tea tasted light but had good tea flavor. Not flowery tasting and easy to drink a second cup. Happy with the packaging and came in great time. So far so so good.

My mother and I are both tea drinkers and so while purchasing some rose tea for her I decided to give the bloom teas a try. It's aesthetic cute to watch the bomb bloom and it tasted pretty good as well. Happy with purchase.

Expensive for this kind of tea. Didn’t expect this and kinda no taste at all.

This was so fun to watch open! Ive been wanting to try this tea for awhile now but haven't found it until now. It came just in time for valentines dinner. It took lomger than i thought to open which was about 10 minutes or more but it was worth it. Id definitely recommend buying this tes

When I had to give up caffeine, I missed a Saturday morning tea bloom. These white tea balls are beautiful, reasonably priced, and produce delicate tea without any real caffeine. They're great!

Lucky gift for a friend.

The tea itself was tasty, however it didn't bloom fully, just opened slightly. That could be due to incorrect usage as the package has no English writing anywhere. The only English is on the Amazon listing. This was given as a gift so I did not want to direct the recipient to the Amazon listing.

Mijn vrouw is een absolute theeleut. Ik heb haar deze bloembollen cadeau gedaan, inclusief het afgebeelde Creano glazen theepotje (500ml), ook gevonden op Amazon. De bloemen komen mooi uit in de pot, erg leuk om te zien. Al met al een leuk en origineel cadeau idee.

Todo correcto

Expérience originale pour les fans de thé

Vraiment joli. Ça créé l'ambiance en fin de repas de Noël. Le goût du thé est bon mais on l'aime un peu plus fort

Ich habe die Kugeln an der Nordsee kennen gelernt und war begeistert. Jetzt habe ich sie mir bestellt. Ich habe dann ein Teestündchen mit meiner Schwester vorbereitet. Wir haben es sehr genossen,die Kugeln aufgehen zu sehen. Sensationell, wunderschöne Blüten. Der Tee schmeckt auch sehr angenehm,nicht zu bitter. Wir empfehlen das Produkt sehr gerne weiter. Als Geschenk prima geeignet und für den Eigenbedarf sowieso.
