It can be called blooming tea (开花茶) or craft flower tea.it is made when green tea leaves with similar length are wrapped around flowers to form a ball with the flowers inside, while the tea leaves coat the outside, then they're wrapped to keep the shape and are dried and preserved with a special procedure. That's why they are called craft tea in China. They are works of art made with various elegant designs.
Brewing Instruction:
Take 1 handcraft tea, put into a 400ml tall tea cup (preferrably transparent glass that can tolerate hot water) and pour in hot water and cover for 3 minutes. Slowly watch the tea ball bloom into a beautiful flower! Enjoy your tea.
