Green Tea Jasmine Pearl - 50g Hand-Rolled Premium Leaf
Jasmine Dragon Pearls: Hand-Rolled Green Tea with Natural Jasmine Essence
Experience the exquisite craftsmanship of our Jasmine Dragon Pearl green tea, where tender green tea buds are meticulously hand-rolled into small pearls and naturally scented through multiple exposures to fresh jasmine blossoms. Each pearl slowly unfurls during brewing, releasing an enchanting bouquet of floral aromas reminiscent of magnolia, lily of the valley, and orange blossom, complemented by subtle notes of honey and beeswax.
The first infusion presents an intensely aromatic jasmine character, while subsequent steepings reveal layers of complexity - from delicate floral undertones to a refreshing herbaceous finish. Made from the prized Fuding Dahao cultivar, these pearls deliver a smooth, crisp taste that perfectly balances the bright notes of green tea with jasmine's exotic fragrance.
The traditional scenting process involves repeatedly layering fresh jasmine flowers with tea leaves, ensuring a natural and pure flavor profile without any artificial additives. This meticulous attention to detail results in a tea that offers both sensory pleasure and therapeutic benefits.

Premium Tea Components: Traditional Craftsmanship
This exceptional blend consists of two carefully selected ingredients:
- Green Tea Buds and Leaves: Harvested from the renowned Fuding Dahao cultivar, known for its smooth flavor profile and ability to absorb floral essences. The leaves are picked young and contain high levels of antioxidants and l-theanine.
- Jasmine Flowers: Fresh jasmine blossoms are harvested at their peak fragrance and used in multiple scenting cycles. The flowers are layered with the tea leaves during the traditional scenting process, allowing their natural oils to be absorbed by the tea.
The tea leaves are skillfully hand-rolled into small pearls, a process that requires significant expertise and preserves the leaves' integrity while concentrating their flavor.

Ancient Chinese Tea Artistry
The art of scenting tea with jasmine flowers originated during the Song Dynasty (960-1279) in China's Fujian Province. This technique was developed to create a tea that could capture and preserve the ethereal fragrance of jasmine year-round. The process became so refined that jasmine tea production evolved into a specialized craft, with specific regions and families becoming known for their expertise.
Legend tells of an emperor who was so enchanted by jasmine's nocturnal blooms that he commissioned tea masters to capture their essence. This led to the development of the sophisticated scenting process still used today. The timing of the harvest and scenting is crucial - jasmine flowers are picked in the morning just as they're about to bloom, then layered with tea leaves in the evening when their fragrance is most intense.
This tea represents the pinnacle of Chinese tea craftsmanship, where art, science, and tradition converge to create something truly extraordinary.
