Jasmine Green Tea

$8.95

For many, Jasmine Tea sits among Black, White, and Green tea as one of the all time classics. This tea is harvested in early spring time and stored until the late summer and then scented 3 times. A  Green Tea base, yet containing another layer of fragrance entirely.

Many of our teas here contain Jasmine as it blends so perfectly well with many other flavours. Throughout Asia this tea is commonly used to greet guests.
