Jiangxi Jasmine Green Tea is a classic flower-scented tea made from green tea leaves and fresh jasmine blossoms. This tea is produced in Fuliang (浮梁) County, Jiangxi Province, an area with over a thousand years of tea-making history and a key part of China’s “Green Tea Golden Triangle.” The region is known for its ecological growing conditions and rich tea heritage, recognized nationally and internationally for its export-quality teas.

To produce high-quality jasmine green tea, freshly picked jasmine flowers are layered with green tea leaves in a fixed ratio (typically 125 jin of fresh flowers to 100 jin of dry tea), then repeatedly scented and refreshed through four rounds of layering and one final flower enhancement step. After each scenting, the spent flowers are removed, leaving only the absorbed aroma within the tea leaves.

The result is a loose-leaf tea with a clear yellow-green infusion, a bright floral fragrance, and a rich, mellow taste. The jasmine aroma is full and elegant, without being overpowering. This tea is made using baked green tea as the base, which helps it better absorb the flower’s volatile oils and release them steadily during brewing.

Jasmine green tea has been part of Chinese export culture since the Song Dynasty and was widely used as diplomatic tea in the early years of the People’s Republic. Today, Jiangxi Jasmine Green Tea continues to be produced under strict sustainable agriculture standards.

For hot brewing, use 3–5 grams per 150 ml of water at 85–90°C and steep for 10–20 seconds. For cold brewing, steep in mineral water for 40 minutes or more.
