Jasmine Chun Hao OP Green Tea (No.134)
£1.90 – £74.40
A precious jasmine tea originally reserved for the imperial court. Light, tender & floral in taste
Jasmine Chung Hao Green Tea was originally reserved for the Chinese Imperial Court in former times. The tea leaf has striking silver tips and is an exceptionally high quality half-fermented green tea. To create this tea, only fresh jasmine blossoms are used which bloom and unfurl the same day they are picked. Whilst they unfurl, a wonderful jasmine aroma is released into the air. To produce Chung Hao, fresh jasmine blossoms are first layered on top of the green tea leaves for 2-3 days. The jasmine blossoms are then removed after the tea leaves have absorbed the jasmine scent. By removing jasmine blossoms from the green tea leaves, it produces a delicately light and refreshing tea without bitterness.
