Introduction:
This Jasmine Black Tea is meticulously selected from the spring harvest of 2024. Combining Yunnan black tea from Fengqing, Yunnan, at elevations of approximately 1600 meters, with jasmine flowers from Hengxian, Guangxi, the exceptional growing conditions impart a unique and richly layered flavor to this tea. The plucking standard of one bud and two leaves, paired with fresh jasmine flowers and three scenting processes, ensures a harmonious blend of soft jasmine fragrance and the robust, mellow taste of black tea.

Reasons to Recommend:

• Core Production Area: The black tea is sourced from Fengshan Town, Fengqing County, Yunnan, where the average annual temperature ranges from 18°C to 22°C, with significant daily temperature variations and annual precipitation of 1200-1700 mm. The jasmine flowers are from Hengzhou, Guangxi, which enjoys abundant sunshine, annual rainfall of 1450 mm, and soil rich in organic matter, providing an ideal growing environment.
• Scenting Process: Yunnan black tea serves as the base, while jasmine flowers from Hengzhou, Guangxi, are used for scenting. The traditional scenting process is repeated three times, resulting in a tea where the floral aroma and tea fragrance are perfectly balanced.
• High-Mountain Tea Gardens: Since ancient times, high mountains shrouded in mist have produced premium teas. This tea thrives in such environments, where lush vegetation and organic-rich soil, combined with extreme daily temperature fluctuations, enhance the accumulation of flavorful compounds in the leaves.

Scented tea isn’t made only with fresh flowers—aromatic leaves can be used as well. Sticky Rice Aroma Black Tea is a unique specialty from Yunnan, created by scenting Dianhong black tea with sticky rice aroma leaves.
These leaves carry a strong, natural sticky-rice fragrance. In Yunnan, they are often dried and used for tea, seasoning, or traditional remedies. Ethnic groups such as the Dai and Hani use them to clear heat and support digestion. Paired with black tea, which is known for warming the stomach, this blend is especially friendly for those with weak digestion.
This Sticky Rice Aroma Black Tea brings together the sweetness of Dianhong and the comforting sticky-rice fragrance of the leaves. Once brewed, you’ll first notice the rich, natural sticky-rice aroma. The tea tastes smooth, sweet, and full, without bitterness or roughness. The liquor is thick, silky, and a glowing orange-red, offering a warm and soothing feeling—perfect for autumn and winter.

This premium Lao Cong Shui Xian comes from Jian’ou in Northern Fujian and is crafted from old Shui Xian tea bushes aged around 30–50 years.

The tea liquor is smooth, rich, and naturally sweet, with gentle woody notes and a soft forest-like character that gradually unfolds through multiple infusions. Subtle hints of aged wood, moss, and lingering sweetness create a calm and deeply comforting tea experience.

Shui Xian is one of the few oolong cultivars where bush age significantly influences flavor. As the tea trees mature over decades, they develop deeper woody sweetness, a rounder body, and the distinctive layered character prized in old bush oolong teas.

Compared with highly aromatic floral oolongs, this style is more mellow and grounded, focusing on texture, depth, and a soothing woody finish rather than intense fragrance.

An excellent choice for drinkers who enjoy smooth, full-bodied oolong teas with woody, forest-like complexity and low bitterness.

This rose black tea brings together two signature ingredients from Yunnan, China: fragrant Yunnan roses and smooth Dianhong black tea.

Yunnan roses are known for their rich, naturally sweet floral aroma. Grown in sunny mountain environments with fresh air, they develop a deeper and more vibrant fragrance.

The tea base is Dianhong black tea, famous for its smooth body and gentle sweetness, often with notes of honey and malt.

Using a traditional Chinese scenting process, fresh rose petals are layered with the tea, allowing the floral aroma to slowly infuse into the tea. This process is repeated three times to create a balanced cup that is soft, floral, and naturally smooth.

This Ya Shi Xiang Dancong is known for its elegant floral aroma, featuring distinctive notes of honeysuckle and sweet blossoms. As one of the signature aroma styles of Fenghuang Dancong oolong (also known as Phoenix Dancong), it is especially appreciated for its clear floral character and naturally honey-like sweetness.

The tea brews into a smooth and gentle cup with a refined, graceful finish. Light, aromatic, and easy to enjoy, it is an excellent everyday oolong for those who appreciate floral teas and clean, delicate flavors.

Gardenia, also known as huang zhizi or mountain gardenia, is an evergreen shrub and one of China’s traditional fragrant flowers. It has long been used in the art of scenting tea.
This Gardenia Black Tea is made by scenting freshly picked gardenia blossoms with spring-harvested Yunnan black tea, using a three-round traditional scenting process.

When June gardenias meet black tea, the flower’s bold, heady fragrance softens into a gentle, elegant aroma. The warmth and richness of the black tea lift the gardenia’s cool, refreshing scent, creating a perfectly balanced harmony.
The first sip brings a clear and delicate gardenia aroma—like walking into a garden in full bloom, instantly awakening the senses. The liquor is smooth and full-bodied, with the gardenia’s natural sweetness melding beautifully with the tea’s mellow depth. A lingering, sweet finish remains long after each sip.

This tea is not only an expression of traditional scenting craftsmanship, but also a soothing gift from nature. In traditional Chinese medicine, gardenia is believed to help clear heat and relieve symptoms such as dry mouth, sore throat, and irritability.
The cooling character of the flower combines with the comforting warmth of black tea, creating a brew that is both rich and refreshing. It’s enjoyable in all seasons, and especially uplifting in summer when you want something cooling, cleansing, and effortlessly calming.

Rou Gui, literally meaning “cinnamon,” is a Chinese oolong tea cultivar known for its distinctive cinnamon-like spice aroma.

This high-mountain Rou Gui is grown at approximately 730 meters above sea level and belongs to a highland oolong style rather than the traditional Wuyi rock tea region. Compared with classic Wuyi Rou Gui, this version presents a softer and more balanced expression of cinnamon spice, with a smoother and more approachable character.

The tea liquor is warm, smooth, and full-bodied, with a gentle cinnamon aroma and natural sweetness. Its spice is refined rather than intense, making it easy to enjoy.

An excellent choice for those who want to explore Rou Gui’s signature cinnamon character in a softer, more accessible high-mountain oolong style.

This roasted Tie Guan Yin offers a warm, smooth, and full-bodied expression, representing a more rounded and mellow style within traditional Tie Guan Yin teas.

The tea liquor is rich and silky on the palate, with pronounced roasted aromas accompanied by subtle nutty and toasty notes. Compared with fresh-style Tie Guan Yin, it has less brightness and briskness, but a noticeably deeper warmth and fuller body.

Through medium oxidation and slow charcoal roasting, the tea’s astringency is further softened, resulting in a rounder, more approachable cup with enhanced depth and structure.

Ideal for those who enjoy roasted, warming oolong teas with a smooth and comforting character.

Huang Jin Gui is a classic oolong tea from Anxi, Fujian, known for its elegant floral aroma and smooth, naturally sweet character.

This tasting-grade Huang Jin Gui offers fresh floral notes with a soft and silky tea liquor. Its flavor profile is similar to lightly roasted Tie Guan Yin, but with a smoother texture, fuller body, and a calmer, more refined aroma.

Compared with more intensely aromatic oolongs, Huang Jin Gui delivers a gentler and more comforting tea experience that is easy to enjoy daily.

An excellent choice for drinkers who enjoy the fresh floral style of Tie Guan Yin and want to explore a softer, rounder expression of Fujian oolong tea.

Zhangping Shui Xian is a unique compressed oolong tea from Zhangping, Fujian, recognized for its distinctive square-shaped tea cakes, elegant orchid aroma, and smooth, naturally sweet character. Each piece is individually pressed for convenient brewing while helping preserve the tea’s fragrance and freshness.

This Premium Zhangping Shui Xian comes from the authentic growing region of Zhangping. The tea liquor is soft, floral, offering delicate orchid notes with a clean, sweet finish.

Compared with more intense and sharp floral oolongs, this tea presents a calmer and smoother profile, making it especially approachable and comfortable to drink.

An excellent choice for those who enjoy floral oolong teas but prefer a softer, less aggressive tea experience.

This Winter harvest Ya Shi Xiang Dancong offers a uniquely soft and refreshing floral profile with a clean, cooling character rarely found in traditional Dancong teas. The tea liquor is smooth, silky, and naturally sweet, delivering a gentle honeyed finish with an elegant winter-like freshness.

Harvested during the late autumn to early winter season in Dapu, Guangdong, this special “winter harvest” style develops a lighter, purer, and more delicate expression compared with typical Ya Shi Xiang Dancong. Its aroma feels calmer and cleaner, while the texture becomes softer and more rounded.

Ideal for drinkers who enjoy refined floral oolong teas with a smooth, mellow, and comforting character. Especially suitable for those who prefer cleaner and gentler tea profiles over heavily roasted styles.

This Osmanthus Black Tea was freshly scented this autumn, using autumn-harvested black tea paired with autumn-blooming Bao Xin osmanthus. Through careful scenting, it carries a rich osmanthus aroma with a gentle sweetness.
Bao Xin osmanthus is often called the “royalty of osmanthus” for its exceptional quality, has layered petals and a full, rounded center. Compared with regular osmanthus, its blossoms are larger, thicker, and more fragrant. A single round of scenting is enough to infuse the tea with a strong aroma, and dried flowers are often kept in the final product to enhance the flavor.
The tea tastes warm and smooth, almost silky, with a sweet, full-bodied profile. The richness of the black tea and the clean sweetness of osmanthus complement each other, leaving a long-lasting aroma and a clear, pleasant aftertaste. It’s an excellent choice for autumn and winter, offering comforting warmth to both body and stomach.

Pinghe County in Fujian is not only the core growing region for Bai Ya Qi Lan but also famous for its Guanxi honey pomelos. Every April, the mountains are filled with blooming pomelo flowers. Tea makers pick the buds just before they open and scent them with Bai Ya Qi Lan, creating the region’s unique Pomelo Blossom Bai Ya Qi Lan. Since the pomelo blossom season lasts only about 20 days, production is very limited.

This Pomelo Blossom Oolong comes from that origin. Its aroma blends the orchid-like fragrance of Bai Ya Qi Lan with the delicate sweetness of pomelo flowers. The tea is fresh, smooth, and naturally sweet, offering both the richness of Oolong and the light, cooling sweetness of citrus blossoms. You’ll notice the gentle sweetness of pomelo flowers at the first sip, followed by the unfolding depth of Oolong. The texture is silky, the aftertaste lingers, and the finish carries a refreshing hint of pomelo blossom.

A classic Chinese pairing designed for moments of restoration. This blend harmonizes the delicate elegance of Hangbaiju Chrysanthemum with the honeyed depth of 2014 Aged Shou Mei White Tea. Beyond the flavor, it is a natural remedy for the digital age—crafted to soothe eyes tired from screen time and clear "inner heat" caused by stress or late nights. It’s a soul-soothing beverage designed to bring clarity and a sense of calm to a restless afternoon.

Pearl Orchid, also known as Zhenzhulan or Cha Lan, gets its name from the way its tiny golden blossoms cluster along the stem like strands of pearls. In She County of Anhui, the flower was originally grown for ornamental purposes, but over time it became treasured for scenting tea. The region’s warm, humid climate and fertile soil provide ideal conditions for cultivating Pearl Orchid. Large-scale production of Pearl Orchid–scented tea began during the Xianfeng period of the Qing Dynasty, and by around 1890, it had already become one of China’s major scented tea varieties, especially loved in northern China and among scholars and literati.

There is an old Chinese saying about seasonal tea drinking: “In winter drink black tea, in summer drink green tea, and in the second and eighth lunar months, drink Pearl Orchid tea.” These months mark the shift between warmer and cooler seasons, when humidity is higher. Pearl Orchid tea was believed to help dispel dampness and support the body during seasonal transitions.

This tea comes from She County in Anhui, using spring-picked Huangshan Maofeng green tea as the base. The addition of Pearl Orchid blossoms gives the tea a cleaner, brighter character. The liquor is smooth and sweet, without the bitterness sometimes found in green tea.

Its aroma is elegant and serene, with a soft, cooling sweetness—reminiscent of orchids blooming in a quiet valley. Compared with the lively, expressive fragrance of jasmine tea, Pearl Orchid tea is more subtle and deep, yet wonderfully long-lasting.
