What is Aged Jasmine Tea? 

Aged Jasmine Tea is a unique category of jasmine tea that has been carefully stored for decades, allowing its flavors to develop and mature over time.

The aging process enhances the tea’s complexity, reducing any bitterness and infusing it with subtle honeyed sweetness.

Jasmine Oolong Tea
Authentic Jasmine Oolong is a premium tea that combines the fresh, fragrant notes of Jasmine flowers with the smooth, rich flavor of Oolong tea. The process involves carefully blending freshly bloomed Jasmine flowers with Oolong tea leaves during the drying stage, allowing the tea to absorb the flower's natural fragrance. The more times the tea is scented with Jasmine flowers, the more intense and aromatic the floral notes become. After the scenting process, the tea is dried again to lock in that fresh, vibrant Jasmine aroma.

For the best flavor, Jasmine Oolong is typically made with high-quality, lightly fragrant Tie Guan Yin Oolong tea leaves, harvested during the summer or autumn season. The result is a tea that’s perfectly balanced: the fresh, lively Jasmine fragrance mingles seamlessly with the smooth, creamy taste of Oolong. It’s like stepping into a garden full of blooming Jasmine flowers, where the sweet floral notes and the smooth, sweet tea create a refreshing, comforting experience in every sip.

This Jasmine Oolong tea is perfect for anyone who enjoys a balance of light floral notes with a rich, smooth finish—ideal for any time of day when you're craving something fragrant and refreshing.

This curated collection of Chinese scented teas celebrates the traditional craft of floral tea making, where premium teas are layered with fresh flowers like jasmine, rose, and osmanthus to infuse their essence. Through meticulous multi-round scenting (3-5 times), each tea offers a pure, natural floral aroma without a single petal in sight. 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 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.

This curated set features six of China’s most popular traditional scented teas, each crafted to perfection with vibrant floral aromas but no petals in sight:
