After brewing, you may notice broken edges on the leaves. This is intentional. Cutting the tea increases the contact area between the leaves and the fresh flowers, allowing the scenting to happen more evenly and efficiently. It also makes it easier to separate the tea from the spent flowers using sieves of different sizes after each round of scenting.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"MsoNormal\"\u003e\u003cb\u003e\u003cspan lang=\"EN-US\"\u003e2) The jasmine flowers\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/b\u003e\u003cspan lang=\"EN-US\"\u003e\u003cbr\u003eFuzhou jasmine tea is made with local jasmine grown in the sandy soils around Fuzhou. This jasmine has a refined, clear, and lasting aroma. The plants are relatively small and lower-yielding, which is part of why the material is so valued. In Fuzhou, the flowers used for scenting are generally picked from June into autumn, when their essential oil content is higher and the fragrance is at its most expressive.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"MsoNormal\"\u003e\u003cb\u003e\u003cspan lang=\"EN-US\"\u003e3) The rock sugar-like sweetness\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/b\u003e\u003cspan lang=\"EN-US\"\u003e\u003cbr\u003ePart of the charm of Fuzhou jasmine tea is its distinctive rock sugar-like sweetness. The baked green tea base, often made from Fuding Da Bai or Fuding Da Hao, is naturally rich in amino acids, giving the tea a fresh and lively character from the start. During withering and later processing, proteins in the leaves break down into amino acids, while polysaccharides are converted into soluble sugars, helping create the tea’s distinctive rock sugar-like sweetness. The floral scent of Fuzhou jasmine also softens the tea’s light polyphenolic astringency, so the overall impression feels sweeter, cleaner, and more refreshing. With repeated traditional scenting, the tea becomes even more integrated, and the cup takes on a sweetness that feels pure, like rock sugar slowly dissolving in water.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Rooteas","offers":[{"title":"25g","offer_id":48685956595935,"sku":null,"price":13.5,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"50g","offer_id":48685956628703,"sku":null,"price":25.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0756\/6553\/9295\/files\/jasmine-mao-feng-tea.webp?v=1774612654","url":"https:\/\/rooteas.com\/products\/fuzhou-jasmine-mao-feng-tea","provider":"Rooteas","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
