Frequently Asked Questions

1. What does this jasmine tea taste like?

It has a light, floral, and delicately sweet taste with a smooth, refreshing finish—ideal for anyone who enjoys naturally scented teas.

2. Can I drink this tea cold?

Yes! Jasmine Chun Hao makes a refreshing iced tea with floral aromatics and crisp flavour—perfect chilled on warm days.

3. Does this tea contain caffeine?

Yes, as a green tea, it contains a moderate amount of caffeine—gentler than black tea but more than most herbal blends.

4. Should I add milk to this tea?

No, we recommend enjoying this tea without milk to preserve its delicate jasmine and green tea character.

5. Why are there no jasmine blossoms?

In high-quality jasmine teas like Jasmine Chun Hao, the jasmine blossoms are removed after the scenting process. This traditional method allows the green tea leaves to fully absorb the floral aroma without the dried petals altering the flavour over time. The result is a smooth, refined infusion with an elegant jasmine fragrance—free from bitterness or stale flower notes.

6. What does OP mean?

OP stands for “Orange Pekoe,” a tea grading term used to describe whole, unbroken leaves of a particular size. Despite the name, it has nothing to do with the flavour or oranges—it refers to high-quality, whole leaf teas, often with a wiry appearance and smooth, refined taste.

7.What does Jasmine Chun Hao reference?

“Chun Hao” (春毫) means “spring tips,” referencing the early spring leaf buds used in this tea. These delicate leaves are scented with fresh jasmine blossoms and prized for their elegant aroma, smooth body, and floral complexity.
