Scenting:

A process of making jasmine tea by mixing tea and flowers together, allowing the tea leaves to naturally absorb the floral aroma, then sifting the flowers and drying the tea leaves. But the more times you make jasmine tea doesn't mean the better. It is rare to find jasmine tea with more than seven processes, which is not only time-consuming and costly, but also easy to over-saturate the flowers and lose the fragrance of tea.

Tea jacquard:

A final scenting with higher quality more jasmine flowers to improve the purity and freshness of the jasmine aroma.

Is it tea or flowers inside jasmine tea?

Jasmine tea is mainly green tea with a few flower petals.

Taste:

With the freshness of green tea blended with the fragrance of jasmine flowers, the silver needle is relatively fresher and sweeter; the dragon pearl is more resistant and fresher after kneading; the big white hairs have a more pronounced tea flavor and astringent feeling.
