I bought this for my jasmine-loving mother, decided to try it first to advise on brewing parameters and ended up drinking through the entire tin. Bought another and it’s going the same way. Oops.
It’s not my favorite jasmine pearl but it’s a nice one when I feel like jasmine but don’t want to put as much thought or effort into the preparation as a higher quality tea deserves. It’s better than the average grocery store jasmine tea, always in stock at my local natural/organic foods store, and cheaper than the jasmine pearl my local tea shop carries (the tea shop’s is tastier so the higher price is probably somewhat justified). The jasmine flavor and aroma is nice and strong. It’s not as smooth as the pearls from my local shop or Yunnan Sourcing but it’s perfectly drinkable brewed any style. Lately I’ve been doing grandpa style in a Fellow Carter travel mug. The splash guard thingie (that absolutely looks like a kitchen sink drain plug) that comes with the mug works really well for keeping any floaty leaves out of the way for grandpa style brewing. It keeps my tea hot for ages so it’s been my go-to vessel while sewing and embroidering.

Ever since I had Teavivre’s Premium Jasmine Dragon Pearls, no others will do, but I haven’t seen this one for sale anywhere around here.
The mug sounds Neato!
I looked up the company. Those really are cool. I like that they have a ceramic interior. Might be a good gift idea for people who actually leave the house, unlike myself.
The ceramic lining is what first caught my attention! I wish it went all the way to the top instead of ending below the edge, but I suppose there would have been problems with the ceramic coating wearing where the lid threads on.
