This tea is still my favorite jasmine tea. I know that Jasmine Dragon Pearls are more popular, but this one wins by a small margin for me.

It’s so sweet, with just the right amount of jasmine. It has none of the soapy perfume taste often found in this type of floral tea.

The green tea never turns bitter and is good for multiple steeps.

After looking at some of Boychik’s pics on Instagram, I’ve decided to start using my fancy antique bone china more often. What is it good for if you don’t use it right?

Well, it actually made my tea taste even better :-)

Yes, I love using my grandmother’s tea set that she received as a wedding present in 1919. I save it for special occasions though,and use a vintage tea cup I bought on Ebay for more casual times.

I really need to start using all of my tea ware. What’s the point of having it, if it just sits in a box or the back of the cupboard and I never enjoy it.

KiwiDelight

It looks so beautiful in that cup. How did you brew it?

TheTeaFairy

Maddy, that must be such a special set!! :-)

Anlina, same here, that’s excactly why I started using mine!

KiwiDelight Thank you! I just brewed it in a simple Gaiwan :-)

Bio

I am French Canadian, so please forgive me if my English is not always perfect :-/

My relationship with tea in a nutshell:

I’m married to straight Black. I have torrid love affairs with Oolong and Puerh. I party with Green and White occasionally. Flavored are not my BFF, I usually stay away from them.

Love Steepster, a place for tea lovers, where you learn and share with others.

About me:

I am a free spirit, I let people be who they are and expect the same in return.

Books! I love classic literature, but also modern and pretty much anything that captures my attention.

Music is also something I can’t live without… From Bach to Nirvana, my ears know no boundaries…

Animal and nature lover, amateur photographer.

I’ve been drinking tea for as long as I can remember.

Drinking tea is a sensorial experience. The name in itself “Camellia Sinensis” lingers the promess of an adventure for the senses…

Not a big «swapper», but will occasionally. Not because I don’t want to share but because I’m trying not to hoard so much.

Also, I have narrowed down the teas I really like over the years, and I don’t feel the need to try and buy everything the way I used to. (Maybe I have become a tea snob? Sigh…)

My ratings: because I pretty much drink only teas that I judge exceptional, my ratings are usually high. Don’t be shocked to see lots of 90’s and a few 100’s. That’s because I’ve had my share of crapy teas and I’m done with that ;-)

You can find me on Instagram here, I post about my tea sessions mostly, but also about the beautiful nature that surrounds me, and my fury companions :-)
