Delicadas y tiernas hojas de té verde de la provincia de Fujian, en China, se cosechan cada mes de mayo y se tuestan para conservar su sabor; después se colocan entre capullos de jazmín recién recogidos, que se abren lentamente para compartir su fragancia. Muchos lo llaman la unión perfecta.
The jasmine aroma is so gentle and natural, like the buds are still slowly opening in the cup. I brewed a small pot this afternoon and the leaves stayed tender through three infusions without any bitterness.
The May-picked leaves stay incredibly tender, and the jasmine buds unfold gradually over several steeps instead of hitting you all at once. I brewed a second cup from the same leaves and it was still fragrant and sweet, which surprised me for such a delicate tea.
The jasmine buds in this batch are so fresh that the floral scent unfolds gradually with each steep, instead of hitting all at once. I've been brewing it lightly at cooler water and the leaves stay tender through three infusions, which feels like getting real value from the May harvest.
