Are these rose buds certified organic and safe to eat?

Yes. They are USDA certified organic Rosa Damascena buds with no artificial coloring or flavoring - grown on Alteya's own farm in the Bulgarian Rose Valley and suitable for tea, culinary use, and crafts.

Why are Rosa Damascena roses from the Bulgarian Rose Valley so special?

The valley's rare combination of mineral-rich soil, mountain microclimate, and centuries of cultivation expertise produces Rosa Damascena with over 300 aromatic and bioactive constituents - a complexity found nowhere else in the world.

What do they taste like, and how do I brew them?

The tea has a gentle, naturally sweet floral flavor with a smooth finish. Use 3–5 buds per cup of hot water (around 90°C/194°F), steep for 5–7 minutes, and avoid over-steeping to prevent bitterness. Naturally caffeine-free.

Why do some buds look beige or brown rather than pink?

Color variation is completely natural. Rose buds do not always retain their pink hue through drying - color can range from dusty rose to beige to brown, with no impact on fragrance, flavor, or quality.

How should I store the rose buds and how long do they last?

Store in a cool, dark, dry place away from direct sunlight and moisture. Properly stored, they will retain their fragrance and quality for up to 24 months.
