Scented tea is made from different types of finished tea leaves that are scented slowly with different fresh flowers to absorb aroma and flavor. Our scented tea is made with traditional methods, using fresh only flowers. The tea has already absorbed the aroma during the slow processing. Tea has the character of slowly absorbing any flavor and aroma around, meaning quality scented tea will take at least 2-3 weeks to fully absorb the scent. For high-quality scented tea, the tea must be scented with fresh flowers for hours at a time, multiple times.
Jasmine tea (茉莉花茶/香片) is tea scented with the aroma of jasmine blossoms. Typically, jasmine tea has green tea as the tea base. The resulting flavor of jasmine tea is subtly sweet and highly fragrant. It is the most famous scented tea in China.
The jasmine plant is believed to have been introduced into China from eastern South Asia via India during the Han Dynasty and was being used to scent tea around the fifth century. However, jasmine tea did not become widespread until the Qing Dynasty (1644 to 1912 AD), when tea started to be exported in large quantities to the West. Nowadays, it's still a common drink served in tea shops around the world.
