Florapharm 8 Treasures of Shaolin Green Tea 100 g Blend

Eight Chinese green teas—Sencha, Gunpowder, Mini Tuo, Chun Mee, Pai Mu Tan, Lung Ching, Snow Bud and Pi Lo Chun—are combined with candied pineapple bits, strawberry pieces and sunflower blossoms to create a loose-leaf blend that releases its flavours quickly.

Green tea leaves infuse by steeping in hot water, allowing the leaves to unfurl and release their natural oils, antioxidants and subtle vegetal notes. The addition of candied fruit and edible blossoms introduces sweetness and visual contrast, while the small leaf size and thin texture shorten the extraction time compared with whole-leaf teas.

To prepare, measure one teaspoon of the blend per cup. Heat fresh water to 90 °C—just below boiling—to avoid bitterness and preserve the delicate aromas. Pour the water over the leaves and let them steep for two minutes. The leaves and fruit pieces settle at the bottom, leaving a clear, fragrant infusion ready to serve.

The blend is packaged in a resealable 100 g pouch to maintain freshness between uses. Each ingredient is listed on the label, allowing operators to check for allergens or dietary preferences before serving.

Infusion time of two minutes suits busy service periods, while the 90 °C temperature setting ensures consistent results across different water sources and equipment. The blend is categorised under speciality teas in the Florapharm catalogue.
