"So how do you tell quality for art teas? It; art tea comes in many different shapes and sizes, this is an example of an art tea that is uneven; if you noticed on the bottom the leaves are broken and down here the leaves seem to be a lot older, and you look on the top. Due to storage, if you're purchasing it in a store a way a few and make a few these are easily broken. If you notice the tip is not very sturdy and when you brew it this will fall out, so when purchasing a art tea especially for the first time make sure you purchase one that looks very even and tight; tightly sewn together. Do you notice how the bottom of this tip is all very even and the leaf size are very even as well? So that when you brew a pot of flowering or art or display tea your brew is beautiful so that when you see it it's in uniform. All the leaves are even and the flower will look as though it's coming out of a beautiful bed of green tea or white tea depending on what is used to produce the flower tea."
