Jasmine Pearls Boite Caddy

Sweet, Floral, 

From Enticing Fujian, China 

A caddy (100g) of young spring picked buds of green tea, naturally scented with fresh jasmine flowers. The result is a soft, vivid infusion with the sublimely enchanting aroma of sweet, fragrant jasmine. 

Origin

This well-loved tea begins its life in China's Fujian province. The freshest spring buds and young leaves are picked to produce a high quality green tea, which is hand-rolled into individual pearls, ready for scenting. Come early summer, the pearls are carefully transported to Guangxi province, where they are placed onto bamboo mats and laid with fresh jasmine flowers repeatedly for five nights. This meticulous process imbues each pearl with a deeply floral aroma, a sweet, honey-like liquor and a long-lasting finish.
