These lovely pearls are made from white peony leaves that are hand-shaped. Each pearl is of the larger variety, weighing on average 3.5 to 4 grams. Once steeped, the cup reveals classic white peony notes of melon and cucumber, a little mineral flintiness and just a hint of honey. Perfect for on-the-road brewing and multiple steepings.

This tea says it has notes of honey and I'm wondering if there's honey in the ingredients or if it's just a flavor profile. Does anyone know? Thanks!

Are you supposed to use each pearl just once to brew one cup of tea? Or do you reuse them?

“ Hello Rory! Each pearl is of the larger variety, weighing on average 3.5 to 4 grams. We would recommend about 10-12oz of water per pearl, depending on taste. You may resteep them! ”
