Snow Chrysanthemum is a hardy, nutritionally dense varietal of Chrysanthemum which spends nearly half of its life buried under snow in China’s Kunlun Mountain area. This adaptation causes its flavor to depart substantially from the powdery delicacy of regular Chrysanthemum, and it instead presents a luxuriously warm, enveloping and verdant tea.

Our ferment utilizes honey to expresses the dense, floral character of this tea, and develops notes of starfruit, shaved asparagus and pollen as it ages. In body and acidity, it resembles a juicy orange wine.

Snow Chrysanthemum pairs excellently with dim sum, tiger salad, carnitas, or anything that wants a bit of acid to complement its heaviness.

Enjoy chilled at your favorite white-wine temperature and use a nearby sunbeam to admire Snow’s fluorescent color in the glass.
