The tea might be authentically Chinese, but those wonderfully aromatic notes of rose are forever England. We’ve recreated the taste of a classic ‘Meigui Gongfu’ rose tea by using a Chinese black tea for the base. Roses were among the very first flowers they tried and osmanthus, orchids and jasmine also proved popular. It was during China’s Ming Dynasty (1368–1644) that tea artisans first experimented with buds and blossoms.
