JASMINE BALLET - 峨眉茉莉

A super-fine Chinese Jasmine tea blended with real jasmine flower buds. These flowers go through a careful selection process seven times, where they get roasted and selected over and over. The whole production takes several months to complete, and it leaves only the flowers that withstood the challenge till the end. With steeping, the liquid comes out bright and golden with a thick texture that is very enjoyable under the influence of the strong jasmine aroma.

Tea story

These lovely jasmine flowers are specially plucked on a sunny day. This allows the flower to unfold its petals to the maximum, just like a ballet dancer enjoying her performance in the green scenery. These beautiful flowers don’t compensate for a less strict standard for our green tea. Only spring tea from the current year is allowed to be added to this mix, selected based on the typical ‘1 bud & 2 leaves’ requirement. It brings an incredible balance to this blended tea with a strong aroma and fresh taste, while improving fatigue and skin conditions. 

 

This tea belongs to our Yīn 阴 | HARMONY collection.

Brewing recommendations

Steeping: 3g | 100ml | 90 °C | 10s

We recommend a steeping temperature of 90 °C (195 °F), where you can set the boiling water aside and allow it to cool down for less than a minute. Then take 3 grams of tea with 100ml water to steep for 10 seconds. The tea can be re-steeped several times when using a tea egg, filter bag, or Chinese Gaiwan/Glass teapot.

You can always adjust the quantity and brewing time based on your preference. When using a larger container like a tea pot, you can take a small quantity and leave it in for a few minutes.

Cold brew: 5g | 750ml | 5 °C | 4-8 hrs

Take 5 grams of tea with 750ml water and keep it in the fridge for 4-8 hours. We recommend preparing it in the evening before you go to bed, or in the morning so you can enjoy it during the day. If you want to keep it in the bottle for longer hours, please start with a lower amount of tea to avoid getting too strong. This tea can be reused for 2-3 times of cold brew.
