Jasmine Golden Yunnan from thepuriTea
96

Oh… how wonderful this is. I should not be surprised, as I tend to love anything I try from thepuriTea. But, this is absolutely FABULOUS!

My love of jasmine started with pearls, and since that time I have discovered jasmine silver needles which I think I love even more than pearls … and now, I may have found a new favorite jasmine! The way the jasmine and golden yunnan play together is so perfect. The jasmine highlights the spice notes of the yunnan in a way that I don’t think I would have noticed without the jasmine. A delightful synergy!

2nd infusion is just as lovely as the first. It is a little smoother, and I notice that the yunnan stands out more now, with the jasmine coming in as a lighter flavor. Still incredible. I really love this tea.

Bio

I am obsessed with tea!

I am a co-founder of the SororiTEA Sisters:
http://sororiteasisters.com

I also review teas for the Tea Review Blog:
http://www.teareviewblog.com

In addition to my passion for tea, I am also a mixed media/altered arts artist. You can see some of my art here: http://eccentricpastiche.blogspot.com

I am also a self-proclaimed foodie. I review local restaurants and the food I buy online here: http://hungryinportland.wordpress.com

*

My favorite teas are Yellow Teas with most Oolong teas at a close second. As far as “flavored” teas go, I love Earl Grey, Chocolate and Jasmine teas.

I also am intrigued by flavored teas with an unusual or unique flavor combination.

*

I don’t do a whole lot of swaps anymore, however, I do occasionally sell sampler boxes here: http://liberteas.teatra.de/ I don’t always have sampler boxes available as it depends upon how much time I have as well as packaging supplies. I usually post at least one or two sampler boxes per month, though, so if you’re interested, keep an eye out or PM me and I’ll let you know when I have some posted.

*

Most of the teas that I record in my notes here are going to have a fairly high rating from me. This is not because I am not discerning, but because I do not usually waste my time on drinking tea I do not care for, nor will I waste my time on writing about it.
