Imperial Jasmine Green Tea

This Imperial grade Jasmine green tea is a spring harvest from Fuding and grows on the borders of Zhejiang and Fujian provinces. The mao jian green tea leaves are stored at a low temperature until the summer Jasmine blossoms have opened. The Jasmine blossoms and green tea are then piled and tossed together. This process can be repeated as many as six times to ensure that the tea properly absorbs the scent of the blossoms.

Jasmine is believed to have been introduced to China over two thousand years ago from Persia. However, the popularity of Jasmine tea was really spurred by European traders between the 16th-19th centuries as demand in Europe skyrocketed.

The scent of Jasmine promotes a sense of well-being and relaxation and is commonly consumed in China during and after meal time as it is believed to help settle the stomach.

• Exquisite Jasmine Aroma: Opening a pouch of our Imperial Jasmine is like stepping into a jasmine garden at dusk. The tea leaves are imbued with an intoxicating floral aroma that blossoms in your cup. As you steep it, the water comes alive with the sweet scent of jasmine a proven mood booster and stress reliever (the aroma of jasmine tea has been shown to improve mood and calm the nerves [Jasmine tea mood study]). This tea offers a spa-like experience in a simple cup.

• Smooth Green Tea Base: We use high-grade green tea (often rolled into pearls) from China for its sweet, mellow character that pairs perfectly with jasmine. The tea itself is silky and never bitter, with gentle notes of green grass and a hint of nectar. Because the scenting process is done naturally with real flowers (no artificial perfumes), the flavour is authentic and well-balanced the jasmine is prominent but doesnt overwhelm the clean taste of the green tea.

• Mindful Relaxation & Wellness: Imperial Jasmine provides a modest caffeine lift from green tea enough to energize gently, but less than a typical black tea or coffee. Its an excellent afternoon or evening choice when you want to unwind yet stay alert. The combination of green tea polyphenols and the soothing act of drinking a floral tea can support relaxation, digestion, and overall wellness. Many tea lovers find that jasmine tea moments reduce their stress and improve mindfulness, making it a perfect companion for meditation, reading, or winding down.

• Versatile Brewing: Enjoy this tea hot for a comforting, aromatic treat, or cold-brew it for a refreshing iced jasmine tea the perfume of jasmine is incredibly refreshing over ice. Pairs wonderfully with Asian cuisine or light desserts, cleansing the palate with its fragrant finish. Each cup of Imperial Jasmine Green Tea invites you to slow down and savour the simple luxury of flowers and tea, seamlessly combined.
