Not only is this tea ABSOLUTELY beautiful when brewed in a glass teapot, it tastes wonderful and never goes bitter as a result of steeping the tea too long. I, too, try to buy as many green peony teas from Peets as it''s only sold during certain times of the year. I highly recommend it!

The bad news with the green peony tea is that it varies from batch to batch due to high degree of hand processing involved in its preparation; the good news is that the continuum goes from good to great. Even a "bad" tin of green peony is never bitter, always lovely, and produces flavorful infusions after multiple steeps. A great tin is subtly floral and nutty and just plain awesome.

This the best specialty "flowering" green tea I have come across! I eagerly wait every year to get 2 or 3 tins. The tea is lovely, flavorful and doesn''t get bitter with over-steeping. The one flower can give multiple infusions and looks so pretty as it steeps. I highly recommend it!
