四宝茶 The Four Treasures (Si Bao) – An Apothecary’s Masterpiece
In the quiet heart of a traditional Chinese pharmacy, a blend was born—Four Treasures Tea (Si Bao Cha), a golden harmony of botanicals crafted for both healing and delight. Each ingredient sings its own song, yet together, they compose something far greater.
The Gilded Quartet
🌼 Golden Thread Chrysanthemum (Jinsi Huangju 金丝黄菊 ) – Sunlit petals radiating warmth, revered in Chinese medicine for their calming grace.
🌹 Mojiang Rose Bud (Yunnan Rugosa Rose 墨江玫瑰 ) – A fragrant jewel from highland mist, unfolding like silk in hot water.
🐉 Dried Longan ("Dragon Eye" Fruit 桂圆 ) – Amber sweetness, reminiscent of honeyed autumn.
🔴 Ningxia Goji Berry (Lycium Barbarum 枸杞 ) – Rubies of the earth, plump with vitality.
Portioned with care, this tea is as much a feast for the eyes as it is for the soul.
The Art of Brewing
We steeped this treasure seven times, each infusion a new verse:
Vessel: 110ml gaiwan (though a glass teapot reveals its ballet of colors)
Temperature: 90°C (194°F) – gentle as a morning in Yunnan
Time: From 30 seconds (a bright overture) to 3 minutes (a deep, honeyed finale)
On the Tongue:
A melody of floral sweetness—rose and chrysanthemum waltzing with the mellow richness of longan and goji. No sugar needed, though the included rock sugar (a beloved Chinese touch) may tempt you.
And then, the hui gan—that lingering, lyrical aftertaste—stays with you like the memory of a song.
Where others might clutter, this apothecary’s blend chooses elegance:
Precision over excess – Each treasure earns its place. A visual sonnet – Watch the rosebuds blush open, the goji berries swell like poetry. Patience rewarded – Even after seven steeps, the leaves whisper secrets.
"Some teas are drunk. This one is felt."
Tip: Try the fourth infusion cooled—it becomes nectar.
A Note on Tradition: In China, such blends are more than drinks—they are liquid wellness, carrying the wisdom of herbalists in every sip.
