Rose Green Tea is a green tea scented with aroma from rose petals and buds to make a scented tea. Typically, the resulting flavour of rose green tea is subtly sweet and highly fragrant. Tea leaves are harvested in the early spring and stored until the late summer when fresh rose flowers are in bloom. Rose buds and flowers are picked early in the day when the small petals are tightly closed. The flowers are kept cool until nightfall. During the night lavender flowers open, and release their fragrance, and this is when the tea scenting takes place.
