For the sake of tasting its special characteristic, here we would like to suggest new friend to start with other black teas.

Beside the tea base, scenting is the most procedure. Jasmine flowers are harvested during the day and stored in a cool place until night. During the night, the flowers bloom with full fragrance. The flowers are layered over the tea leaves during the scenting process. Each morning, the spent flowers are removed and fresh blossoms readied for the evening. This process is repeated a number of times, depending on the grade of tea. For top jasmine grades, the nightly infusion continue for twelve consecutive nights. But It is required at least 3 repeated time tea leaves to absorb the fragrance. As long as processing is in the right way, for sure it will be with rich floral scents which many people find quite enjoyable.

Normally, top jasmine tea is made from tea with tender buds. Take Fujian jasmine tea as a sample: The top jasmine tea strip is long and full with more white hair, they are buds without leaves, the second grade is one bud with one leave or one tender bud with two leaves, more white hair. Less buds or more leaves could be regarded as the lower grade jasmine tea.

With refined production craft, ready to sell jasmine Dabaihao are buds covered with white hair, tender yellow soup, rich aroma, pure and mellow taste.

2.Jasmine Pearl Teas

Jasmine pearl tea is made in Fuzhou, Fujian province. Each “pearl” is a hand-sewn smooth green tea with a rich jasmine bouquet , there beautiful pearls are rolled from the tender shoots of tea leaves and buds to unfold the rich and smooth sweet floral flavor. They are usually rolled around the blossom very tightly, then tied with cotton thread.
