Osmanthus and Fig Tea

Why people make this tea

Osmanthus is one of Nourilo’s favourite flower teas — on every trip to Guilin he would buy the local golden osmanthus, fragrant and unforgettable steeped with oolong. Here he pairs it with dried figs for a tea traditionally enjoyed to nourish the complexion and moisten the lungs, gentle enough to sip over the long term.
