Lotus Tea — Lotus Tea — Ceremonial Grade · USDA Organic · Hanoi, Vietnam

Vietnam's most sacred tea, now in your cup.

For centuries, Hanoi's tea masters have practiced a ritual that 
produces one of the world's rarest teas: fresh green tea leaves are 
layered inside living lotus flowers at night, left to absorb their 
fragrance for an entire day, then removed and dried. The result is a 
tea so delicately perfumed, so layered in flavor, that no artificial 
flavoring in the world can replicate it.

This is that tea.

Our Lotus Green Tea is ceremonial grade — meaning it is made using the 
traditional hand-layering method practiced by artisan producers on 
Hanoi's West Lake (Hồ Tây), the historic home of Vietnam's finest 
lotus tea. West Lake lotus flowers have a uniquely sweet, honey-like 
fragrance that is considered the best in all of Vietnam. You will 
taste the difference immediately.

HOW IT TASTES
Delicate, floral, and deeply complex. The lotus fragrance opens first 
— soft, honeyed, almost otherworldly. The green tea underneath is 
smooth and grassy with a clean, lingering sweetness on the finish. 
This is a tea you drink slowly, without distraction.

HOW TO BREW
Use 1 teaspoon per 8oz water at 175°F (80°C). Steep 2 minutes exactly 
— no longer, or the delicate floral notes will fade. Use filtered or 
spring water for best results. This tea rewards a second and third 
infusion.

HOW IT IS MADE
Fresh tea leaves → layered with lotus blooms overnight → absorbed → 
separated → dried → packaged within 48 hours. Each 4oz bag requires 
hundreds of lotus flowers. This is slow, artisan production. No 
shortcuts. No flavoring agents. Ever.
