Tasting Notes
A deep and heady aroma with a light and gentle flavour.
Jasmine
Fresh Flowers
The finest rare white silver tips scented with fresh jasmine flowers.
The tea is laid out on bamboo trays with fresh blossom over six consecutive nights, with the downy tips absorbing the scent of the jasmine. Each morning the flowers are discarded and fresh jasmine is layered through the tea in a sealed room to impart their fragrance.
EMPERORS
No artificial flavours
Once the preserve of Emperors this is simply the finest jasmine tea available anywhere.
A grade above Jasmine Pearls, which are a more astringent green tea, this is a more delicate and elegant white tea.
This tea is not flavoured and containing no additives. Jasmine tea can be made using any tea as a base and is most often flavoured with oils or synthetic flavourings to mask low grade leaves.
