Jasmine (green) teas are produced in many Chinese provinces and are quite popular (especially in the north of the country). Teas can either be dried together with jasmine and absorb its aroma, or jasmine flowers are added directly to the tea. This gives the teas an aroma of jasmine, but still retains its original taste.

Bi Tan Piao Xue
€15,48
“Snow falling on a jade green pond” – a beautifully poetic name for a fine green tea from the spring harvest in the Ze Rong region of Fujian. The tea was scented with the finest autumn jasmine in a high ratio of 5:1 (5kg of jasmine flowers were used for 1kg of tea).
Jasmine flowers are also abundantly present in the tea itself (although they do not add any more aroma – they are aesthetically pleasing and give meaning to the poetic name of the tea).
The tea has a distinctly jasmine-sweet, silky-fruity flavour with a rich aroma that lasts for many infusions.
