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.
