A Dream of Summer Fields





Tea: Pai Mu Tan. Weiße Päonie / Colonnaden Tee Contor
Infusion: 80 'C 3-4 minutes


At my afternoon tea moment I enjoyed a white tea, Pai Mu Tan , 'Weiße Päonie' (white paeony) from the company 'Colonnaden Tee Contor'. I got it as a present from Hamburg. The label says that it is gentle and fresh, which it certainly is. The recommended temperature for the water is 80' degrees and the infusing time is 3-4 minutes.
Tea for me is a way to meditate in the middle of a busy lifestyle. An attempt to harmonize your world in a small scale.

'Soft breeze of warm air moves girl''s hair and light dress
Hay growing long kisses her bare legs
feet without shoes pace along the sun-parched path
eyes slowly catching the waves of rippling heat
Daisies and paeonies infusing a slight smile on her fair face.'
