Osmanthus Chin Hsuan tea is a Oolong tea base scented with Osmanthus petals. When taste it, you not only enjoy sweetness of Oolong tea also fragrant of Osmanthus flowers. If you like me, and your probably not because you don't sit around writing pointless blogs, your thinking: "What the hell is an Osmanthus Flower?"
Osmanthus is a genus of about 30 species of flowering plants in the family Oleaceae, mostly native to warm temperate Asia (from the Caucasus east to Japan) but one species occurring in North America (southeastern United States, Texas to Virginia). It is sometimes included in Nestegis. They range in size from shrubs to small trees, 2-12 m tall. The leaves are opposite, evergreen, and simple, with an entire, serrated or coarsely toothed margin. The flowers are produced in spring, summer or autumn, each flower being about 1 cm long, white, with a four-lobed tubular-based corolla ('petals'). The flowers grow in small panicles, and in several species have a strong fragrance. The fruit is a small (10-15 mm), hard-skinned dark blue to purple drupe containing a single seed.
