Traditional Vietnamese lotus tea with the natural lotus scent
In Vietnam, this is a precious lotus tea scented with lotus flowers, which has long been regarded as tea for the royal family. From the pond in the early morning, the lotus flowers are picked just before they bloom, and only the gaosen (anthers at the tip of the stamens) are carefully collected by hand, and the scent is transferred to the tea. 100 lotus flowers are needed to make 100g of lotus tea. Among the lotus teas, those that do not use fragrances and allow you to enjoy the original natural scent of the lotus are extremely valuable. The same tea leaves can be brewed for 5 to 8 infusions. Enjoy a relaxing tea time by brewing a small amount of tea in a small teapot and enjoying many cups of tea.
Surprisingly, it doesn't use beautiful petals.
The small ochre grains are the anthers, which are the source of the fragrance.

Only lotus flowers harvested early in the morning, before the buds have fully opened, are used.
This precious lotus tea fragrance is produced through the painstaking process of carefully collecting white anthers, each the size of a grain of rice.
I recommend getting the whole family involved in the work.
Lotus tea, with its beautiful oriental floral aroma, is known among tea lovers as a very romantic traditional flavored tea.
The base tea is from Ha Giang province in northeastern Vietnam, which borders Yunnan province in China and where the original tea plant originated. The tea used is Shan Tuyet Tea, made from large-leaf tea that has been native to this area since ancient times and aged for two years.
This tea can only be made in June and July when lotus flowers bloom all at once. The anthers, which are the source of the lotus's fragrance and are about the size of sesame seeds, are mixed into the tea.
To enjoy the aroma in every cup, when putting tea leaves into a teapot, carefully scoop out the tea with a teaspoon so that the anthers are evenly distributed.
