This is a delicious, fragrant tea from Yunnan Province in South West China, where the misty temperate climate provides ideal growing conditions. ?It is then scented with jasmine flowers in the neighbouring Guangxi Province for a delicately perfumed Green tea.
Tea Description
Two young, tender leaves and a bud are hand rolled into a tight, silvery 'pearl' shape, then allowed to sit repeatedly with night-flowering jasmine blooms to take on the heady perfume of the flowers. ?When infused the leaves open to produce a delicate liquor with a sweet, scented and refreshing character.
Jasmine Scented Green Tea
Use 6 to 8 pearls per person. ?Boil fresh water, leave to cool for 5 minutes then pour on. ?Allow to steep for 3 minutes. ?Add more water 2 or 3 times. ?Best enjoyed in a porcelain cup without milk.More information
