Another wonderful tea from Taylors of Harrogate November 10, 2008

I drink a lot of tea. I'd been buying Twinings loose Jasmine tea, then tried this. This has the blossoms throughout and smells wonderful as you open the container, as you brew it, and as you drink your tea. The flowers are pretty as well after the steeping. I'm not an expert, but I love this tea and the price is great. I've found that for the best flavor, limit the steeping time. It will get harsher if it stands. Also, 1 kilo is a lot of tea. 2.2 lbs a lot. Once I opened the bag, I placed the tea into empty tea tins (nine 4 oz ones I think) that I already had, then I store them in my refrigerator until ready to use. This has let me keep tea fresh for over a year. I like the other two flavors that I've tried from Taylors of Harrogate as well, the black current and the peach. They make great ice tea for the summer.
A Rich Flower Garden in Bloom. July 7, 2006

A Ming Dynasty (AD 1368 - 1644) creation believed to lower cholesterol and promote longevity, jasmine tea consists of Chinese green tea leaves -- usually green teas from Fujian province, which is also home to the semi-fermented Oolong and smoky Lapsang Souchong -- scented with jasmine flowers. Traditionally, the flowers are harvested during the day and stored in a cool place until nightfall, when they develop their full fragrance. They are then layered over the tea leaves, which have previously been steamed or heated to prevent their oxidation. The tea's quality is determined both by the quality of the green tea used as its base and by the effectiveness of the scenting process. Brewed, it has a delicate, silvery color and a rich fragrance reminiscent of a flower garden in bloom.
