Bismuth showing off yesterday in the partial sun we had! He walked over to impress Bug initially, but then I got the little catwalk show as he wandered off in search of ladies more easily impressed than Bug.

If there are teas deemed too beautiful to drink, display teas would certainly fall into that category. Also commonly known as blooming or flowering teas, these works of tea art are meticulously crafted to delight all the senses as they steep, rehydrate, and bloom into the shape of a flower.

In China, display teas are referred to as Gong Yi Hua Cha, literally translated Art Flower Tea. Their origin may trace to 10th-century Yunnan Province, where early spring teas were picked, processed, and tied into various shapes for the amusement of the emperor. These artisanal teas found a new audience in the West about a decade ago, and several tea venues — such as the Grand America Hotel in Salt Lake City, Utah, or the Umstead Hotel and Spa in Cary, North Carolina — use these colourful teas as table centerpieces during the service of afternoon tea.

To craft these tea treasures, as many as 100 individual tea leaves — white, green, oolong, or black — are methodically stitched into captivating displays that conceal a hidden blossom gathered from flowers such as lilies, jasmine, plum blossoms, golden marigold, or amaranth. As the leaves rehydrate and bloom, the hidden blossom slowly floats free from its tea-leaf nest and fills the container with color and aroma.

To watch the colorful show unfold, consumers often steep these teas in wineglasses or brandy snifters. Display teas generally do not become bitter when oversteeped, an important consideration since the leaves may be left in the glass for an hour or two.
