The process of producing Jasmine tea started in China sometime during the Song Dynasty (960-1279) using tea blended with Jasmine blossoms. Jasmine teas are created using different types of tea: white, oolong and green predominantly. The base teas used are picked, depending on the type of tea, from March to June, but the Jasmine blossoms do not bloom until the summer. So the teas are picked, processed and stored until the fresh blossoms can be added. The blossoms are picked in the morning when the dew has dried off the closed buds. The buds are then kept cool during the day and then in the evening, when the buds begin to open, they are mixed into the tea. After at least 4 hours, when the tea has absorbed the jasmine scent, the blossoms are removed and fresh buds are added. For standard grade jasmine teas, the blossoms are added 2 or 3 times. For premium grade jasmine teas, this process may be repeated up to 8 times. Once the blenders are satisfied that the tea has the appropriate amount of aroma, the tea is re-fired to remove the moisture that was introduced to the tea by the fresh jasmine blossoms. Jasmine tea destined to remain in China usually has the spent blossoms removed from the finished product, but with teas that are exported, jasmine blossoms are sometimes left in the finished tea for their appearance.

Historically the aroma of Jasmine blossoms was recommended for stress relief, depression and relaxation. Flavored with orange and vanilla, they create a relaxing aroma.

Enjoy the fruity creaminess of this spectacular combination of flavors on a first rate jasmine. The tea brews to a light ecru cup with long green leaves.

Ingredients: Jasmine tea with vanilla flavor and orange spice flavor.

Brew tea at 195º - steep for 3 minutes.

Not what I was hoping - this tea ages quickly.

Ive been dreading writing a note for this one, since its the rare S&V tea that just isnt good. This sounded like a really nice combination of flavors. I seemed to have missed that the base of the tea was green and not black. It doesnt seem to be mentioned on the website or the pouch. When fresher, the leaves distinctly had the fragrance of all these lovely elements: orange, vanilla, jasmine. The flavor was bubblegum. But now that the blend is getting older, it definitely smells and tastes like only BUBBLEGUM. The cup cools and the more Im tasting bubblegum. And then the green tea is also getting a little bitter. But the bubblegum is so odd and not really what I wanted from this one. Second steep: more bubblegum. I think I have learned that some orange flavoring tastes like bubblegum, so I think that is the problem here. Cant win them all. So the key with this one is to drink it quickly.Steep #1 // 1 1/3 teaspoons for a full mug // 40 minutes after boiling // 2 minute steepSteep #2 // 32 minutes after boiling // 2 minute steep

A balanced blend

I'm not typically a jasmine person due to it sometimes just being too powerful, however this blend is what I would call perfectly balanced. I can taste each component nicely. Nothing is too overpowering in my opinion. The vanilla makes for a slightly creamy cup; while the orange adds a citrusy brightness. A very enjoyable cup for the afternoon!

Match Made in Heaven

Jasmine tea is a favorite of mine with its relaxing, heady fragrance. However, the addition of orange and vanilla to the tea adds complementary bright notes that make it sparkle. The blend is mellow and no one flavor or scent is overpowering. If you love jasmine tea but are searching for a variation, try this!
