Anyone know where I can buy blooming teas in London or online in the UK?
Blooming teas are also known as “display” teas. They are hand wrapped teas that usually have a flower (like jasmine) inside. You pour boling water over in and allow the tea to “bloom”. If you have any info, I would really appreciate it. Thanks. Here’s what they look like: http://www.adagio.com/misc/display_teas.html?SID=01119dd56c64407ab67f2f3d98e01744
