Detailed Description

A favorite for tea connoisseurs, expand your collection with our premium Jasmine Pearls green tea (also known as dragon pearls). These delicately prepared hand-rolled pearls are crafted from green tea, layered and scented with fresh jasmine blossoms. As the pearls unfurl in hot water, they release a delicate, floral aroma and subtle sweetness—resulting in a serene, floral brew that’s as refined as it is inviting.

Aroma & Tasting Notes:

  • Liquor Color: A luminous pale green to soft yellow, reminiscent of spring mornings.
  • Aroma: Begins with soft jasmine floral notes, balanced by crisp, grassy green tea undertones.
  • Flavor Profile: Clean and delicate green tea notes with a gentle floral sweetness.
  • Body: Delicate and light bodied. It has a smooth finish ideal for repeat brews.

Origin & How Its Made:

  • Origin: Grown near Fuding, in Fujian province, China.

Additional Information/FAQ:

Q: What is the difference between Jasmine Pearls and (loose leaf) Jasmine green tea?
A: Jasmine Pearls use hand-rolled pearls that “bloom” while steeping, while loose-leaf jasmine green tea expands but does not change shape.

Q: Why is Jasmine Pearls considered a special/premium green tea?
A: The creation process is much more extensive and labor intensive. Buds are hand-picked, scented multiple times with Jasmine blossoms, then hand-rolled into pearls. The result is a tea with a richer aroma and unique form/brew.

Q: Are Jasmine Pearls and Jasmine tea both types of green tea?
A: Yes, both use green tea leaves scented with jasmine blossoms. However, the pearls are hand rolled.Q: How many Jasmine Pearls brew one 8 oz cup of tea?
A: Typically, 3-4 pearls, but it depends on personal taste preference. Additionally, Jasmine Pearls tea retains flavor well for multiple re-steeps.

Q: Can this tea be re-steeped?
A: Re-steep pearls up to 3 times: the first infusion yields a delicate liquor; and re-steeps continue to bring out the unique floral sweetness.
