Сю Е Тай Цзу (закрытая хризантема)

A herbal tea from the highlands of Tibet, also known as Tibetan chamomile. The plant grows on slopes at an altitude of 3000 metres, among snow-capped peaks. Dry, it appears as closed flower buds in the red tones of autumn. The infusion glows a fiery amber. The aroma is fruity-floral and soft, with an oily nuance. The taste is remarkably vivid — floral and honeyed, spicy and herbaceous, with a character reminiscent of chamomile tea. It can be brewed in short infusions, steeped at length, added to other teas, or brewed with milk. Water temperature: 80–90 °C. It helps to flush out toxins, normalise the metabolism and lower blood pressure, as well as break down fats. It calms the nervous system well and is suited to evening drinking. Its rich complement of biologically active substances and essential oils has a beneficial effect on the central nervous system, steadying the emotional state, relieving stress and improving cognitive function.
