Jasmine Tea
Jasmine tea is a unique type of tea that combines the fragrance of jasmine flowers with tea leaves, primarily produced in Fujian province, China.
Typically based on green tea, jasmine tea undergoes multiple scenting processes with jasmine flowers to absorb the floral aroma. Its history dates back to the Song Dynasty when people began mixing jasmine flowers with tea to enhance the tea's fragrance.
By the Ming and Qing Dynasties, the production of jasmine tea had matured, becoming a tribute tea for the imperial court. Jasmine tea is particularly suitable for consumption in hot summers, helping to cool down and refresh with its pleasant aroma.
