The voice of a lover is like a soft breeze in the night, and for one memorable summer Jasmine Green kept our climate in check through the radios in our cars and the speakers over the dance floor. If you were too young to join the party back then, just take a look at how many baby girls were named Jasmine the following Spring and you’ll get a good idea which way the wind was blowing. She wore a flower in her hair, a platinum smile and a dress that made us all want to dance, but it was her golden voice that made us want to get down and boogie! Jasmine told us not to worry, to forget about the world outside. She kept on doing it until we all gave in.
Jasmine Green is a green tea from China, lovingly scented with jasmine blossoms. Steep in 180 degree water for three minutes and share it with a friend. When finished, heat up some more water and do it again.
Andrews & Dunham knows that nothing beats a perfect cup of tea, and a great tea needs no explanation. We love the romance of tea. We love that tea might just be the healthiest thing you’ll ever drink. But if the tea you’re drinking doesn’t taste fantastic, you’re missing out. Only a few teas meet our mysterious, rigorous standards and we’re proud to offer them to you. We’re always looking for that perfect cup, so you don’t have to.
Pretty typical Jasmine aromas. I don’t (generally) care for Jasmine teas. While the nose turns me off, the flavor is great. Slightly sweet—not at all bitter. Really impressed. Only A & D could make me like a Jasmine.
One minor gripe, the dry leaf is small with lots of broken pieces.
This is super flowery. Like, waaaay super flowery. Which, in the right mood, is a good time.
It made a good eyeopener tea for me today, where it’s a gray crapful day out and some flowers would be a welcome sight.
I think I steeped this one a bit too long, as it got sort of cloying at the very end, but I still enjoyed it.
Gung hay fa choi! This was a hit at Chinese New Year. Intense jasmine aroma. Naturally sweet jasmine, melon taste. One big pot stood up to three steepings, though the third was pushing it. Leaving the leaves in the pot it got a little bitter, but not bad. Stood up well to haphazard temperature and steep times.
Dry, this tea is like being smacked in the face with a bouquet of flowers. Once steeped the nose is still extremely floral, but there’s a calm sweetness and delicacy that invites a sip. On the tongue the floral sweetness is balanced well with a mellow green tea with no hint of leaf or bitterness. An enjoyable morning tea with clearly seperated flavors and easily drinkable. A light & airy finish with lingering sweetness.
Beautiful liquor and a light taste more reminiscent of a white tea than the usually grassy greens that I drink. The Jasmine scent was nigh overwhelming out of the tin, but the tea itself was more subdued and found a good balance between overbearingly flowery and a breezy whiff of posies. I think I like the Dragonwell green offered by Andrew & Dunham more than this, but the Jasmine green still makes for a great cuppa.
In the tin, the aroma is like walking through an arbor covered in jasmine vines.
After steeping, the color is gold, verging on amber and mostly clear, with only some very fine particles suspended in the tea. I know it’s repetitive, but it smells like walking through an arbor covered in jasmine vines.
Last weekend I tasted another jasmine green, and I used the following criteria for jasmine green “done right” (and I can’t really improve upon these, so I’m recycling them):
1. The jasmine smells and tastes like the essence of flowers rather than a flavoring agent.
2. The jasmine is integrated into the tea, rather than smelling and tasting pasted on.
3. The tea base is both a great delivery vehicle for the jasmine and not completely overpowered by it to the point where it disappears.
4. Extra points for juicy, flowery goodness.
The main issue I have at the moment is my tongue is burning. No. 2 heated up some Indian food for breakfast (!) and I had some. Hotsy totsy! So my taster is slightly subdued.
But even with that going on, this is an awesome jasmine. It gets mega points on scores 1-3 and it’s even doing well on 4.
Too bad they don’t have this available on their website at the moment. Must. Hoard.
