Pure Jasmine Green Tea

Its Friday and I’m running on fumes. Fortunately, they are the industrial strength fumes of Stassen jasmine tea. This tea is quite unsubtle about its subtleness. In case you’re not aware, this is JASMINE!!!! (tea). Actually, as far as I can tell, its just jasmine flowers, with some leaves that got sucked into the jasmine flower harvesting machine by mistake. Wait, there it is, just a bit of tannin tang in the aftertaste. I hope there’s some caffeine in there too, or I may faceplant on theol7u8yol. jm78y…

BLAM!!! IN YOUR FACE!!!! Which is exactly what this tea and it’s bullying jasmine flavor do! I love jasmine and I love tea that has strong flavor, so being smacked upside the taste buds by this tea is alright by me. I find it refreshing as an iced tea, but a little drying in my mouth as well. I do enjoy it plain with it’s puckering taste, but like it better with a little sugar to take the edge off the bitterness that seems to accompany it no matter how I brew it. There is often a pitcher of it in my fridge during the summer (in true southern form) and find myself getting all hopped up after a couple tall glasses and getting a lot of housework done. So overall, it’s a win in my book.

I’ve thought of tossing this into my purses/gym bags to keep it fresh because the scent is just superb. It’s the most floral jasmine tea I’ve smelt.

Taste wise it’s great but make sure you don’t steep it for too long because it does get quite bitter.

pretty intense jasmine flavour, I really like it but I could see how some people might be offput by this. Smells fantastic.

I love this tea and its definatly not subtle with the Jasmine. Once you steep it, it fills the room! I needed sugar to drink this one.

this tea is also great iced!

Best jasmine scent I’ve ever come across in a tea. A tad too acidic for my liking, but cold-brewing it or steeped quickly makes it okay. I’ve also added it to cake and cookie batters successfully.

Says “use fresh boiling water”…

Pretty intense jasmine flavour which i like. Kind of rough tasting though, and can be a bit too bitter if steeped for too long. Decent teabag jasmine tea for the price however.
Sri Lanka jasmine tea is something out of the ordinary too, very floral.

This is always the tea I serve people in my house if they are normally not tea drinkers because not only does it taste amazing for tea in a bag, the smell fills the room . Very aromatic and it’s always a crowd pleaser. Just don’t steep it too long or it becomes bitter.
