Jasmine Green Tea, Loose-Leaf, 100 g

Jasmine green tea is green tea that has taken on the scent of jasmine blossom. For ours, young top leaves are scented with jasmine blossom twice during production rather than once. That second round is what gives the tea its full floral aroma, which you will notice as soon as you open the pack.

Flavour

Mild but full, with the jasmine clearly present and the green tea still tasting like green tea underneath. Because it is loose-leaf tea, the leaves can open up properly in the water, and you decide how much to use and how long to steep it.

How to brew it

Use a teapot with a filter, an infuser or a tea strainer. Green tea goes bitter in boiling water, so let the kettle cool first.

Water: 75-85°C, not boiling
Dose: about 1 teaspoon (2-3 g) per cup
Steeping time: 2 to 3 minutes
Second cup: steep the same leaves again for a lighter cup

Cold-steeped

Put the leaves in cold water and leave them in the fridge for 6 to 8 hours. Cold steeping gives a softer, sweeter take on the floral flavour.
