This blend of healthful dark tea and floral freshness is ideal for those looking for a unique, flavorful tea with both depth and balance—perfect for everyday enjoyment or as a special gift for tea lovers.

Storage:

Why Ancient Tree Black Tea Stands Out
Ancient tea trees, often over 100 years old, grow in remote, pristine mountain forests, free from synthetic fertilizers or pesticides. Their deep roots absorb rich minerals and nutrients, resulting in tea with a full-bodied, layered flavor and natural floral or honey notes.

The leaves of ancient tree black tea are thicker and more resilient, with higher levels of polyphenols and aromatic compounds, making the tea exceptionally durable in brewing. Each steep releases consistent flavor and aroma, often lasting for many infusions.

Yunnan, home to over 56 million ancient tea trees, is known as the “kingdom of ancient tea.” With the introduction of the Yunnan Ancient Tea Tree Protection Regulation in 2023, these trees are now safeguarded to ensure their heritage continues. Ancient tree black tea is a unique gem, offering both a pure taste and a connection to centuries of tradition.

Introduction
Jasmine tea is made by blending finished base teas with fresh jasmine blossoms, allowing the dry tea leaves to absorb the floral aroma. The resulting tea is known as jasmine tea.

Our Jasmine Green Tea Sampler features four types of Chinese green teas as the base, each scented with jasmine flowers through different numbers of scenting sessions—3, 5, 7, and 9 times. These teas represent a variety of classic green tea shapes in China:

• Curled (Biluochun)
• Tightly rolled with visible silvery buds (Mao jian)
• Needle-shaped (Zhen wang)
• Covered in fine white hairs (Bai hao)

Each variety offers a unique green tea taste. With increasing scenting sessions, the jasmine aroma becomes progressively more intense, allowing you to experience the true artistry of traditional Chinese flower-scented tea.

Who It's For
From the moment you open the package, the elegant scent of jasmine welcomes you—calming and refreshing, as if you're stepping into a serene garden. The flavor profile ranges from light and delicate to rich and full-bodied, offering delightful variation.

Jasmine green tea is ideal for those who enjoy floral aromas and refreshing green tea. It helps relax the mind, improve alertness, and support metabolism. Perfect for moments when you crave a fragrant, revitalizing beverage. Thanks to its floral scent, it's also great for cleansing the palate after meals.

The Oolong Tea Sampler comprises four renowned loose-leaf Oolong teas from China: Tie Guan Yin, Minnan Narcissus, Da Hong Pao, and Feng Huang Dan Cong. It provides a comprehensive opportunity to appreciate the disparities among Oolong teas, from their refreshing, floral, honeyed, to fruity aromas. Moreover, you'll delve into the variations in taste brought about by differences in fermentation levels and roasting intensities. Additionally, you'll explore the unique flavors derived from both modern high-mountain tea gardens and ancient tree plantations. This sampler simplifies the process of identifying your preferred Oolong tea variety.

2025 Biluochun First Flush - Rare Reserve Spring Tea(Pre-sale)
We’re excited to offer you the 2025 Early Spring First Flush Bi Luo Chun, sourced from the tea garden of Master Zhang in Dongguan Village, Dai Bu Town, Liyang City, Jiangsu Province. Master Zhang has over 20 years of tea-making experience, having learned from his father, who has been a renowned tea master for over 40 years. Master Zhang has kept traditional tea-making methods alive, using hand-rolling, roasting, and drying techniques passed down through generations. This year's tea is picked in late March, around March 20, and features tender, fresh leaves at the "one bud, one leaf" stage, ensuring the highest quality flavor and aroma.

Why We Source Biluochun from Liyang's Dai Town Instead of Lake Dongting
While Lake Dongting's Biluochun gets the hype, our Liyang Dai Town tea is the purist's pick. Think of it like craft beer vs. mass-produced lager – both quench your thirst, but one's got soul. Grown 60 miles west of Dongting in pollution-free mountain air, these old-growth tea bushes (the hardy 'Jiukeng' variety) have weathered decades to develop complex flavors. You get that classic Biluochun vibe, minus the touristy markup.

Why Handcrafted Beats Machine-Made
Master Zhang treats tea like a slow-cooked meal – no shortcuts. His hands knead each leaf to unlock natural oils (that's where the floral magic happens!), while factory machines just crush and rush. It's the difference between grandma's pie crust and frozen supermarket stuff. Want silky texture and aroma that dances on your tongue? That's the artisan craft talking.

Why this product?
Many people are unclear about what qualifies as aged tea and how to tell the age of tea. iTeaworld has been working with aged tea in the Chinese market for 20 years. We believe that for tea to be considered "aged," it should meet these three criteria: 1. It should have an aged or woody aroma. 2. The tea liquor should be smooth, rich, and sweet. 3. There should be a noticeable warm sensation in the body, especially in the hands and feet, after drinking.

Based on this standard, we’ve selected 10 aged teas, including Oolong, black tea, white tea, dark tea, Pu-erh, and green tea, to help tea lovers understand what aged tea really is.

The product includes:
1995 Shui Xian Oolong Tea: 2 packs of 5g each

Why Aged Tea is Still Drinkable:

The reason aged tea can still be consumed safely lies in the unique chemistry of tea leaves and traditional storage methods. Tea contains powerful antioxidants like catechins and polyphenols, which naturally help slow oxidation, keeping tea consumable for extended periods. Dried tea absorbs only minimal moisture and oxygen, meaning it doesn’t provide the damp environment that bacteria need to grow. As long as tea is stored properly—dry, cool, and sealed against odors—it won’t spoil easily, and you can enjoy it without worries if there’s no mold or strange smells.

How Different Types of Tea Age:

Dark Tea (Hei Cha)
Dark tea, when properly aged, undergoes microbial transformations that mellow its flavor. Over time, compounds like caffeine and polyphenols break down, shifting the taste from bitter to smooth and rich. Dark tea requires specific storage conditions: dry, airy, and cool, to support this mellowing process.

White Tea
In China, there’s a saying about white tea: "One-year tea, three-year medicine, seven-year treasure." Aging for three years or more brings out richer flavors and enhances its perceived medicinal value. As white tea ages, the leaves soften in flavor and aroma, creating a more layered drinking experience.

Black Tea
Black tea generally maintains its natural sweetness and fragrance over time, and since its flavor doesn’t improve with aging, most black teas are best enjoyed fresh. However, certain types of compressed black teas, like Hunan's Fu Brick, can develop deeper flavors with storage due to gradual microbial changes.

Oolong Tea
Roasted Oolong teas like Wuyi Rock Tea (Yan Cha) gain complexity as they age. The roasted notes soften, and the tea develops a distinctive “aged aroma,” adding richness and hints of sweetness. Proper storage is essential to preserve its unique characteristics: keep it dry, away from direct sunlight, and sealed to maintain freshness.

Jasmine Green Tea
Jasmine Green Tea, infused with fresh jasmine flowers, has a unique floral aroma that is best enjoyed within one or two years. Over time, the green tea component oxidizes, leading to a darker color and a softer floral note. To preserve the jasmine aroma and freshness, it’s ideal to store it sealed, in a cool, dry place, or even refrigerate it if possible.

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 cycles—3, 6, or even 9 times—the 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.
