t Leaf Tea Jasmine Dragon Pearls – 100g Tin
A truly traditional Chinese green tea, Jasmine Dragon Pearls tea has beautiful floral notes that produce a sublime aroma and taste. Young green tea leaves are scented six times with jasmine blossoms to produce one of today’s most prized Jasmine teas. The beautiful, yet subtle infusion has an elegant champagne colour and floral aroma that is perfect for anyone’s tea palate.
During production, the tea leaves are layered with jasmine to allow the oils of the flower to infuse into the tea. The tea leaves are then delicately rolled into beautiful little pearls that unfurl when steeped in hot water.
Blended across the harbour in Petone, John and Amanda van Gorp of t Leaf Tea have a passion for creating fragrant and uniquely New Zealand teas, as well as the well-loved classics. Jasmine Dragon Pearls is a classic Chinese green tree which should be a staple in any tea cupboard.
Brewing: Use 5-10 pearls in a cup or 1/2 a tsp per person for a teapot. Pour freshly boiled water, cooled to 70-80C, over the pearls and infuse for 2-5 minutes. May be re-steeped several times.
