China Jasmine Dragon Phoenix Pearl

Green Tea by Dethlefsen & Balk

One of the most beautiful treasures in our World of Tea. This precious jasmine tea grows in the mountains of Southeastern China. A highly fragrant specialty, traditionally rolled by hand for centuries. The jasmine pearls fascinate by an incomparable sweetness with a most delicate jasmine flavor. Due to global limited availability we cannot guarantee a continious supply.

I have a friend that always brings me tea souvenirs from her vacations. Most of the time it is Jasmine. I’m not sure is this is because it is her favorite or if I once made a comment while we were eating at our local Asian lunch haunt. Anyway, when I saw yet another Jasmine, I secretly wished for a little change. Luckily I got it. I’m one lucky steepster!

Don’t try to rush this tea experience. It is fun from the start. The pearls are beautiful as they unfurl so be sure to brew using a clear glass container. Next the sweet smell of flowers hit you but the flavor is mellow. It all works together for a wonderful experience without overwhelming the senses. Quite enjoyable.
