Two days ago I had a discussion with Barbara and cteresa about jasmine teas and I was saying I stupidly never think to drink Jasmine teas except when I am in a Chinese or Japanese restaurant.
Then I remember I had an untasted sample from a swap with LaFleurBleue and decide to rectify the affront I make to Jasmine teas.
The smell of the dry pearls has nothing especially noticeable, the liquor smells very delicate.
Jasmine is not overpowering vs the tea base, the mix is perfectly balanced.
In spite of my fear with green teas, there is absolutely none hint of astringency with this tea.
Looking the small pearls opening is a real pleasure too
I really appreciate this tea even if Jasmine isn’t my favorite floral tea – I am very rose and very violet (and strangely this is exactly the same with Perfumes) thank you LaFleurBleue to permit me to taste this lovely tea.
Glad you liked it.
I guess you could also mix it with a rose or violet flavored green, though it would have to brew a strong one, as jasmine is a real powerful flavor.
that’s a good idea, I didn’t try yet to mix teas but you’re right we should dare.
