TeaSpringPicked this up with my YS spring greens as I needed an inexpensive daily drinker. Despite being a year old, it’s still perfumey and has fresh, clean jasmine flavor. I love the little jasmine flowers that open up as if they’re blooming and dance around in the teacup.
Compared to Yunnan White Jasmine from Verdant, my all-time favorite jasmine tea, this is just as sublime but edges towards astringency when steeped too long. The white jasmine on the other hand remains smooth from first sip to last.I think the white jasmine is better suited for grandpa style while this does best western steeped. Also, really nice cold brewed.
Flavors: Jasmine, Perfume
Since I’ve been revisiting several of the green teas in my stash this week, I figured I should do this one too. I think it’s my favorite of all my jasmine greens. I’m not really sure why I prefer this one over the Fuding Yin Hao jasmine in drank a few days ago. This one smells and tastes a little sweeter to me…not sure if that’s from the leaf type or growing region or something else. Like the Fuding Yin Hao, this one is April 2019 harvest tea with May jasmine flowers.
I decided to use my smaller glass gongfu bottle, 175° water, 120-ish ml, steeps starting at 15-ish seconds, just an eyeballed amount of leaf because I’m lazy. When I don’t weigh the tea I try to aim for slightly less than I think I need and then add more if the flavor isn’t strong enough. I don’t like my greens overleafed and I have a long history of being rather heavy-handed with teas and spices so if it looks to me like it couldn’t possibly be enough it’s often just right :-P
I’m not sure what else there is to say about this tea. Like with many jasmines teas, I can really only identify jasmine in the flavor and aroma. They all just smell and taste like jasmine to me. I can tell if they’re different teas but I usually can’t describe what’s different about them very well.
