Ingredients
Green tea, 1 % Jasmine flower, Natural aromaBrew & Taste
The infusion is yellow in color, the aroma and taste is very delicate, sweet and specific. The jasmine notes are unmistakable, so it blends well with the freshness and faint astringency of green tea. A drop of natural flavoring helps the intoxicating aroma linger longer and makes the tea drinking experience even more enjoyable.
Jasmine loose-leaf tea is also wonderful for making iced tea. You can pour the lukewarm tea into a glass filled up to 2/3 with ice cubes. You will get an extremely refreshing drink!
Origins
Green tea was brought from Yunnan, a province in southwest China where tea plants have been cultivated since the 10th century. Entire families care for these unique teas. Wisdom and experience have been passed down from generation to generation. Therefore, green teas from Yunnan are among the most exquisite varieties of Chinese teas ever.
Jasmine is added to green teas for its striking aroma and flavor, which can neutralize the aroma of some dishes. For this reason, jasmine tea is often served with heavy and flavorful dishes. The way in which jasmine flowers are processed is also interesting – traditionally they are picked early in the morning and stored in a cool place all day.
In the evening, before they open and bloom, dried green tea leaves are placed near them to absorb their strong aroma. At night, when the jasmine flowers are already open, they are mixed with the tea and repeatedly warmed and strained. Formerly by hand, today mostly with the help of machines and dryers.
