DESCRIPTION
A classical Chinese green tea. Jasmine flowers are picked when they begin to bloom and are layered over tea leaves overnight. The tea quickly absorbes the jasmine flavour leaving the pretty blossoms intact. This flavouring process is repeated with several batches of flowers delivering a golden cup with unique jasmine green tea flavour synonymous with Chinese restaurants.

Beautifully fragranced tea with a light pleasant taste. The longer it brews, the stronger the jasmine flavour will be

Great tea. It's our regular cuppa with a couple of ginger nuts after dinner.

China Jasmine has recently become a standard to our regular order. It has a delicate, graceful flavour and is refreshing too.
