Thousands of years ago, one creative tea soul thought it would be exciting to fuse tea with their beloved jasmine blossoms! Back then, the fragrance of jasmine was believed to be a fragrance of heaven & tea was meant to be the ultimate medicine. When tea was fused with jasmine it naturally became a cherished creation, a tradition, and a way of life for many...
Years later, today this perception remains the same, and the Jasmine tea habit has conquered every tea corner around the globe. Hence, we thought it’s high time to present our version of Jasmine tea to the world.
Jasmine tea making is truly an art and requires wisdom and craftsmanship. Usually, tea farmers reserve their harvest from the early spring harvesting season to produce their best jasmine tea. Jasmine flowers bloom during late summer, and thus begins the Jasmine tea-making season. Classically farmers blend Jasmine flowers with green tea and allow the tea to absorb all those aromatic goodness from the Jasmine flowers. This process repeats up to several cycles until the tea leaves fully absorb the jasmine flavor & fragrance. After this scenting phase, tea is slightly dried again to remove excess moisture. Today this scenting process is done for many other tea bases as well, like black or white tea.
The fusion of jasmine and tea results in a heavenly aroma and flavor into the tea and creates a really soothing impact on the drinker. However, most of the health benefits result from the tea leaves themselves.
With all the benefits from natural jasmine and tea leaves, this fusion is already healthy. We have our own little secret to make this healthier. We’ve added a pinch of saffron and vibrant rose petals to our Jasmine dragon pearl tea, and collectively it looks divine. The soothing aroma of the rose complements perfectly with mild jasmine hints of the tea. Saffron, on the other hand, adds a pleasing yellowish hue, and a sensational earthy character to this already delicious tea.
Well, this is our interpretation of jasmine tea; aromatic, flavorful, and addictive. A truly gourmet fusion that can brighten any special tea moment!
