Origin & Terroir of Jasmine Green Tea
Green Tea Base (Emei Mountain, Sichuan)
This Jasmine Green Tea uses a green tea base from Emei Mountain, Sichuan, a well-known high-mountain tea region (above 800m). We select early spring pre-Qingming buds as the base material, valued for tenderness, higher amino acids, and lower bitterness. The result is a higher-grade base with excellent bud integrity and strong visual appeal.
Jasmine Flowers (Hengxian, Guangxi)
The jasmine flowers come from Hengxian (now Hengzhou), Guangxi, one of the major production regions for jasmine flowers and Jasmine Flower Tea. We use 5-round scenting to create a fuller, longer-lasting jasmine aroma. The flowers are hand-picked, and the process requires significant time and flower volume, resulting in higher production cost.
Our Sourcing Method
We do not rely on one fixed farm. Instead, we collect samples from multiple sources each year and repeatedly test, screen, and taste them to select the most stable and balanced version.
For this Jasmine Tea, we specifically prioritize base tea grade, bud integrity, jasmine aroma fullness, and sweet aftertaste—making it a refined Chinese jasmine tea suitable for serving guests and gifting.
