About Jasmine

A flavored tea infused with the scent of jasmine flowers. While green tea is the common base, those made with black tea offer a refined balance of aroma and astringency. It is recommended to enjoy it straight, taking your time to savor the fragrance.

How to brew

Good tea comes down to three basics: the amount of leaves, fresh boiling water, and steeping time. Use about one teaspoon (3g) of leaves per cup, pour freshly boiled water at 95–100°C briskly over them, put the lid on the pot, and steep for 2.5–3 minutes. When the leaves circulate up and down in the pot (the 'jumping' effect), the aroma and flavor come out well.

As a straight tea
Enjoy the tea's natural aroma and liquor color. Steep for about 2.5–3 minutes; shorten it slightly if you find it too astringent. Pour out to the very last drop (the 'best drop') so the second cup keeps the same strength.
