Buy Green Tea


Jasmine green tea is known throughout the world for its elegant fragrance and distinct floral taste. The quality of this distinctly Chinese blend is determined by the grade of the green tea used as a base and the process by which Jasmine flowers are infused into the leaves. Many people say the aroma soothes frayed nerves and calms their spirits.

Jasmine flowers are combined with green leaves at the height of their blossoming to create a unique scent. This process is repeated up to four times to create a highly pungent blend. The Fujian region of China is known for producing some of the most fragrant blossoms and is also known for highly absorbent loose leaves. The finest leaves come from the first picking, which often occurs in the spring months.

Preparing an Excellent Cup of Jasmine Green Tea

If you want to prepare a great cup of tea, follow these simple steps:

  1. Buy loose leaves from a specialty service. Look for blends from the Fujian region of China.
  2. Scoop two teaspoons of tea into an eight ounce cup and set this aside.
  3. Pour clean water into a teapot and bring it to a boil.
  4. Let the water sit for two minutes.
  5. Steep it for up to four minutes. Steep it any longer, and you may get a bitter-tasting brew.

The Tea Farm is an excellent online resource for buying the freshest jasmine green blends from the top-producing regions in China. Look for intense flavor from varieties like Dragon Pearl, Mao Feng and Xian Pian.
