In stock

We sourced this refined tea exclusively from a small, family-operated tea farm in a prime location: Fuding, the internationally acclaimed region for silver needle tea. The field for this tea is located at 700m elevation at Mt. Taimu, the birthplace of white tea and top terroir in Fuding.

Flavour

Traditionally, jasmine tea is produced by mixing fragrant blossoms with white tea. No additional flavours are added in any other form. We offer jasmine tea made with silver needles that is produced according to these same standards. The delicate floral notes of the tea leaves (da bai hao cultivar) perfectly complement the intense aroma of jasmine blossoms.

The most exquisite silver needles from Mt. Taimu are selected for this tea. The needles are then naturally fragranced via mixing with fresh jasmine blossoms from the acclaimed growing region of Heng in Guangxi. The jasmine blossoms are mixed with the tea and then carefully removed by hand. For each of the three mixing stages, new blossoms are used. The resulting tea is exceptionally elegant and creamy with delicate notes of butter and an intense jasmine aroma. The tea is furthermore rich in L-theanine and caffeine.

The jasmine blossoms used for fragrancing are sourced from the acclaimed "jasmine region" of Heng in Guangxi Province, Southwestern China. Numerous farmers cultivate jasmine on over 10 hectares of land there. Exquisite jasmine has been grown in the region for centuries.
