Kitchen and Housewares Reviews of Primula Flowering Tea Set with 40-Ounce Pot with Glass Lid
Customer Review: A great gift for all tea drinkers!
Summary: 4 Stars
I bought the Primula Tea Pot Set as a Christmas gift. What a hit at our holiday celebration! We opened the box on the spot and made a pot of tea. Everyone looked on with amazement as we watched this little ugly tea ball open and turn in to a pretty little flower.
We boiled water on the stove in a regular pot [as you do with any china or porcelain tea pot]. We gently poured it over the flower ... and waited. In a few seconds it floated to the top and went in to a dance. One by one, the ugle brown fronds opened and a lovely little flower started to emerge [maybe 2 1/2" dia]. The flower finally all opened, sunk to the bottom of the pot and rested there as we gazed at it and enjoyed our tea. My guess, the type of flower has anything to do with the flavor of tea; flavor is likely infused in to the flower.
The tea itself was kind of weak for my taste, but I am not an avid tea drinker so I will reserve judgment here. Serve it to say, this should not a deterent. We received the jasmine tea flowers with the pot. Other flavors are available.
The tea flowers are sold separately for use in any tea pot, but I would highly recommend the clear pot - you'll miss all the fun without the clear glass as a stage.
Not sure how my DIL will reuse the flower [says you can use each flower 3 times]. The flower is very delicate so we'll see how storage and reuse works [ we zip locked it for transport home and storage].
Set comes with the clear glass pot, a clear glass infuser to use with loose tea vs. the flower balls, and a full box of jasmine tea flowers [12]. Even the box that the flowers balls come in is just lovely.
Overall, I would highly recommend this gift for anyone who enjoys tea. Good value [just $30], relaxation, and enjoyment are defintely all there in this set!
Gave it 4 stars vs. 5 stars because they do not tell you how to remove the flower or store it. That would have helped.
