Story

Though sometimes referred to as green, jasmine teas are technically oolongs. They are prepared by mixing the delicate flowers of the night-blooming jasmine with tea each evening. With nightfall, the blossoms open and infuse the tea with their sweet aroma. Each morning, the spent flowers are removed and fresh blossoms readied for the evening. This process is repeated a number of times, depending on the grade of tea. For top jasmine grades, the nightly infusion continue for twelve consecutive nights.

"This is a good Jasmin tea, a bit too strong for me, but it is great if you mix it with a tiny bit of coconut pachoung and lavander. "

"This is a very good Jasmine Tea. The taste isn't too overbearing, and you can still taste the earthy Oolong. It produces a beautiful auburn color and a warm smell."
