Each pearl is hand-rolled from the top bud and stem, then repeatedly scented with jasmine blossoms to build layered aroma without overpowering the tea leaf. The result is a lightweight, fragrant infusion ideal for multiple short steeps and for anyone who appreciates traditional tea craft.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch3\u003eHow is this jasmine pearl tea made?\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eThe pearls begin with the top bud and one or two young leaves harvested in spring, then are withered and hand-rolled into tight spheres. After rolling, the pearls are scented with jasmine flowers several times, often five or more cycles, to achieve a balanced aroma. Skilled artisans time the process so the green leaf’s freshness remains while the floral notes build.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cul\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eSpring-plucked top buds and stems for fresh green character\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eBamboo-tray withering and manual rolling into tight pearls\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eMultiple jasmine scenting cycles to layer fragrance\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eApproximately 2,000 pearls required per pound of tea\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\n\u003ch3\u003eWhat flavor and aroma should I expect from these pearls?\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eYou’ll find a smooth, vegetal green-tea base with a clear, bold jasmine aroma that lifts the cup without masking the leaf.
