Rosa Damascena, also known as Damask Rose, Bulgarian Rose etc is a symbol of beauty and love, and has been used for centuries for perfume, cooking and for tea!
In addition to their soothing and exotic fragrance, roses are excellent for the health of hair, skin and nails, and according to TCM, can act as a complementary treatment for pre-menstrual symptoms including pain, nausea, bloating, etc.
Damask Roses are the source of "rose otto", the precious rose essential oil that is prized all over the world. Our rosebuds are sourced in China where they are highly popular as a premium rose tisane. These rosebuds are very fragrant, mildy sweet and can withstand multiple brews and are an excellent way to wind down after a stressful day. These beauties also make an excellent gift and can be added to other teas for fragrance.
These rosebuds are grown in an organic tea garden at 1,800m altitude in a garden oasis at the edge of the Xinjiang Taklimakan Desert in the northwestern region of China. The sandy soil, high altitude as well as the special climate conditions encourage the development of a very fragrant rosebud.

This tea is amazing
My husband and I love this tea so much and we’re so happy to find this store while visiting New York a couple years ago. We bought several different ones while there but this is still our favorite. We are so happy that we can now order online whenever we want to.
