Produced: Spring 2018
Origin: Fuding, Fujian Province, China.
Background: Spring picked green tea with tender tips grown on a tea estate in Fujian province. These high grade hand rolled tips are scented with freshly blooming jasmine blossoms that are refreshed nightly until the naturally absorbed flavor is locked in.
Brewing guide: Try infusing 10-12 pearls per cup in water 80C and watch them unfurl slowly as they release their heady aromatic scent! Water should be caught just under the boil and add ⅕ cold water to ⅘ hot water to get the right temperature. NB. use cooler water if you want it to taste sweeter!
