Perfect for floral tea lovers or anyone curious about authentic Chinese scented teas, it includes six varieties: Jasmine Green Tea, Rose Black Tea, Jasmine Black Tea, Osmanthus Oolong, Jasmine Oolong Tea
and Jasmine Dark Tea. Ideal for gifting or indulging, this set combines rich heritage, delicate flavors, and the artistry of a UNESCO-recognized tradition. Not suited for those who prefer plain teas or are sensitive to floral fragrances.
Chinese Scented Tea Craftsmanship
"Scenting" is a traditional process where tea leaves are layered with fresh flowers, allowing the tea to absorb the floral aroma before the flowers are removed. This process is repeated multiple times to create the rich fragrance of high-quality scented teas. The best scented teas have no visible petals but retain the pure floral essence. By meticulously layering flowers and tea, ensuring proper aeration, and maintaining strict control over the scenting time and roasting process, the tea reaches peak flavor and aroma.
Depending on the number of scenting cyclesโ3, 6, or even 9 timesโthe tea's quality and complexity increase, with some processes taking up to a month. This craftsmanship, involving over 60 days and 200 steps, was recognized as an Intangible Cultural Heritage in 2022 for Jasmine Green Tea. While jasmine green tea is the original scented tea, modern innovation has expanded the range to include many beloved varieties.

Crafted from fresh spring-picked green tea harvested in Ya'an, Sichuan, and traditionally scented five times with fresh jasmine blossoms, this Jasmine Maojian Green Tea delivers an elegant balance of vibrant green tea freshness and rich floral fragrance.
Ya'an's cool mountain climate and abundant rainfall nurture tender tea leaves with a naturally sweet, refreshing character. Through five traditional scenting rounds, the tea gradually absorbs the natural aroma of freshly opened jasmine flowers, creating a fragrance that is rich yet refined, while preserving the lively character of the green tea.
The result is a bright, refreshing cup with a smooth body, lingering sweetness, and a clean floral finishโan excellent choice for everyday enjoyment, whether served hot or cold.
This Jasmine Silver Needle Green Tea is a premium, high-grade jasmine tea made from tender spring-picked Yunnan Da Bai Hao buds and fresh jasmine blossoms from Hengxian, GuangxiโChinaโs most famous jasmine-growing region.
Using only whole silver buds as the tea base, the tea undergoes an exceptionally refined seven-time scenting process. Fresh jasmine flowers are repeatedly layered with the tea leaves, allowing each bud to slowly absorb deep, natural floral layers while preserving its inherent sweetness and softness.
The result is an elegant, luxurious cup with a pure jasmine fragrance, silky texture, and long-lasting sweetness. More refined than everyday jasmine teas, it is designed for quiet enjoyment, gifting, and moments that call for something truly special.
Introduction:
This Jasmine Bai Hao is meticulously selected from the spring harvest of 2023. Plucked from high-altitude tea gardens in northern Fujian, at elevations of approximately 1000 meters, the exceptional growing conditions impart a fresh and richly layered flavor to this jasmine tea. The plucking standard of exclusively whole buds, combined with nine scenting processes, ensures a vibrant, luxurious floral aroma, a refreshing and mellow taste, and a sweet, lingering aftertaste with a hint of rock sugar sweetness.
Reasons to Recommend:
- Core Production Area:ย Grown in northern Fujian, where the climate is warm, humid, and evergreen year-round. With abundant sunshine, ample rainfall, and a frost-free period of 326 days, the region provides an ideal environment for tea cultivation.
- Scenting Process:ย Fuding Big Pekoe serves as the tea base, while jasmine flowers from Fuzhou, Fujian, are used for scenting. The traditional scenting process is repeated nine times, resulting in a tea that is described as uplifting, soothing, and warming, evoking the image of a jasmine flower slowly blooming.
- Whole Bud Material:ย The plump, straight bud tips are covered in abundant, visible white hairs, indicating their tenderness. These buds absorb the jasmine fragrance more effectively during scenting, resulting in a more intense, fresh aroma and a smoother taste. The tea retains its flavor and aroma even after multiple infusions.
