Experience the authentic fragrance of Xinjiang Hetian Purple Rose Tea, a traditional specialty cultivated in the Hetian region for over 2,000 years. These small-branch purple rose buds are naturally grown in a clean environment without sulfur fumigation, artificial coloring, or additives.
Each bud is carefully hand-selected before shipment to ensure complete flower shape and minimal damage. The dried buds display a natural pink-purple color — not an artificially bright red — reflecting their purity and authenticity.
When brewed, the petals gently bloom, releasing a rich floral aroma and producing a clear yellow-green infusion with a smooth, natural taste.
Xinjiang small-branch roses are known for their high content of cyclic peptides, vitamins, citric acid, and nerol, contributing to skin nourishment and overall wellness. Traditionally valued in Chinese herbal culture, Hetian roses are considered superior in quality compared to mass-produced varieties.
Packaged in a convenient 80g tin, this tea is perfect for daily relaxation, skin-friendly wellness routines, and elegant gifting.

FAQ
Q1: Why is my rose tea blue instead of yellow-green?
Rose tea normally brews yellow-green. Due to differences in water pH levels:
-
Acidic water → reddish tone
-
Alkaline water → bluish tone
This is a natural reaction of anthocyanins and not artificial coloring.
Q2: Are these roses dyed?
No. The buds are naturally pink-purple. Bright magenta color usually indicates artificial dyeing.
Q3: Are the flowers sulfur-treated?
No sulfur fumigation is used. The buds are naturally dried.
Q4: How should I store the tea?
Keep sealed in a cool, dry place away from moisture and sunlight.
