Scented Teas

Scented teas are infused with varying aromas and natural flavorings to make then stand out in each cup. We offer several scented teas, including several styles of Jasmine teas and the ever popular Earl Grey tea blend. A majority of Jasmine teas are made with a pouchong, or semi-fermented tea base. Pouchong tea has reacted with the air for a shorter period of time than black teas and a longer period of time than green teas, creating a varying leaf style and taste from other tea categories. This type of tea is gently touched with Jasmine blossoms picked at the peak of their bloom. Earl Grey is a delicately scented blend of large leaf black teas and oil of Bergamot. Pearl Jasmine is a unique green tea that is hand rolled into tiny compressed balls.

China Jasmine Our standard Jasmine is a lightly fermented pouchong tea, gently touched with freshly picked jasmine blossoms from the Huang Mountain area of China. After repeated exposure to the tea leaves, the flowers are removed, leaving the exotically fragrant aroma behind. China Jasmine makes a sweet and easy drinking brew.
