The Great Emperor of China loved the scent of jasmine. Yet the life of these flowers is fleeting! So he decided to summon the wise tea master Lao Cha:
— Tell me, Shifu, how can I enjoy the wonderful aroma of jasmine year-round?
The wise master had an answer:
— As usual, pick the tea leaves in Spring. Save them until summertime when the jasmine in Fujian province starts to bloom. Await nightfall, when the gentle jasmine flower blossoms, and leave it alone with the tea leaves. Allow for them to seep into one another. Year-round you will be able to rejoice in the scent of jasmine while enjoying the tea. In addition, your body will be grateful for the tea’s wonderful healing qualities.

To make Jasmine Tea, the tea leaves are harvested in the early Spring and then stored until late Summer, when Jasmine flowers start blooming. The flowers are picked in the early morning when the petals are still closed. Once harvested, they are kept cool until nightfall. During the night, jasmine flowers open, releasing the exquisite fragrance, and the scenting takes place.
During the process of making jasmine tea, tea buds get scented with the jasmine flowers a total of 5 times, each time replacing the used jasmine buds with new ones. This way, tea leaves are infused with an intensive flower scent while retaining the qualities of the pure raw material without additives.
Making Jasmine green tea is a laborious process that takes time and effort. To save both, some producers would use scented oils or flavorings. They will then scent the tea leaves during their processing. Our tea uses only natural jasmine petals and sticks to a traditional way of production.
