Description

Valentine's Day is fraught with pressure to buy the perfect gift. Instead of stressing, we have the solution for the tea lover in your life - the Love Petals set.

Three exclusive Valentine's Day blends, packaged loose in festive floral tins, are sure delight the recipient. Each tin holds enough to make 50 cups of tea, ensuring your sweetheart will remain yours or at least for the rest of the winter.

Comes ready to present in a gift box.

Story

St. Valentine's Day first became associated with romantic love in the circle of Geoffrey Chaucer in the High Middle Ages, when the tradition of courtly love flourished. In Japan, the holiday focus isn't on roses and jewelry as much as it is chocolate. Japanese chocolate makers make half of their annual sales during Valentine's Day, and gifts are centered around giving the right amount and type of chocolate to your valentine. In South Korea, similar to Japan, women give chocolate to men on February 14, and men return the gesture by giving candy to women on March 14 (White Day). On April 14 (Black Day), those who did not receive anything on the 14th of Feb or March go to a restaurant to eat black noodles and mourn or celebrate singledom (depending on their viewpoint).

"I enjoyed all three of these, but really like the chocolate-raspberry. Hope they are available year round!"

"I ordered Ripe for Romance. This was a good tea but doesn't quite come close to its sibling, Valentines. The chocolate doesn't come through as much and takes a lot more sweetner than Valentines to bring out the flavors. But all in all a very good blend. I prefer this iced. 5 minute brew time at 212 degrees."

"Very nice teas with adorable tins! I believe the Hugs and Kisses is the best with its light creaminess."

"OH MY GOODNESS. After reading the comments about this tea, I decided to try it for myself. I was expecting it to be pretty much like the other dessert flavored teas that I've had in the past - good and yummy, but tiring after a while. Not so with this tea! I honestly believe I could drink this every day, all day and still be in LOVE with the flavor. The raspberry and chocolate flavor is bold and perfect. It is a big hit with family and friends also! This is definitely a romantic-inspired tea, but it would be great at anytime of the year!!"

"Very cloying smell. Flavours tasted very fake and strong. No mention on packaging that I could see regarding measurement/cup. I assumed it was a standard 1 tsp/cup."
