Imperial Jasmine Pearls
This year’s competition-grade Imperial Jasmine Pearls is grown and produced entirely in Fuzhou, which the capital of Fujian province and the original home of Jasmine tea for over 200 years. This is where the best Jasmine teas are still sourced, as the quality of Jasmine blossoms and tea remain the highest here. We select only exceptional teas for our Imperial title, and this batch meets our high expectations: a sophisticated tea with elegant notes of Jasmine flowers. No matter how long we steeped this tea, it never became excessively bitter or unpleasant.

BREWING INSTRUCTIONS
For best results, we suggest brewing Jasmine Pearls in a Gaiwan at near boiling point. Infuse the pearls for a minute or two (depending on the amount of leaves used and the strength desired), drain into another cup and wait for the tea to cool a bit before enjoying. Use approximately 5 grams of pearls per 8 oz of water. Always adjust quantity of leaves, infusion time, and water temperature according to your personal preferences.
