Jasmine Pearl

Jasmine Pearl is often classified as a green tea, but the hand-rolling process causes oxidation, making it a pouchong (a lightly oxidized oolong tea). Our Jasmine Pearl Oolong was plucked from the tips and leaves of tea plants in Fujian, China and then infused with the essence of fresh jasmine flowers and coiled into tiny spheres of flavor and fragrance. Their hazy brew smells like sweet jasmine, fresh fruit and vanilla, and tastes richly floral. Smooth, sweet jasmine essence is balanced with flavors of vanilla and banana leaves. An enchantingly clean, sweet, lingering aftertaste makes this handmade, all-natural jasmine tea a fan favorite. Try it with Thai coconut custard or sip it after a meal of dim sum.

Tea to Water Ratio 1:1. If you prefer a stronger flavor, use up to two grams of tea for each cup of water.

Water: Filtered water is best. 180ºF (simmering with tiny bubbles)

Traditional Steeping: 3 to 4 minutes

Flash Steeping: First, we run warm water over the tealeaves and pour it off very quickly. This removes any impurities and “awakens” the tealeaves for brewing. Then, we steep the tea – 15 to 35 seconds.
