When I was a kid, I had these tiny shrunken sponges that once set in water; would expand several times over.  Teaposy is like that, only much better.

Each individually wrapped Teaposy blooms once set in hot water, slowly opening until it reaches its zenith as one of Teaposy's patented flower designs.  Each Teaposy flower makes 6-8 cups of fragrant, yet light tea, for your amusement and consumption.

In addition to being beautiful, teaposies are also brimming with antioxidants and a bit of caffeine (8-15mg), and are actually comprised of rare silver needle white tea leaves from China; harvested only from May to September.

If you also spring for Teaposy's gorgeous glass version of the tea kettle, you'll be able to watch the blossoming before your eyes, every time.

The tea comes in cartons of six (each Teaposy carefully vacuum sealed), with a choice of eight flavors ranging from "heart of love" with rose and lily, to "falling water" with Jasmine and Calendula.

Final Word: Beautiful and functional; it doesn't get much better than this.
