Jasmine has represented a sacred plant for millennia and ordinary Hindus people used to weave crowns with these flowers to greet their guests. Its name comes from the Persian word "Yasmin" and it means "the gift of God". At the same time, the legend says that Queen Cleopatra took this beautiful plant with her on her boat in order to captivate and seduce Mark Antony. Jasmine is a plant with a rich symbolism, showing love and beauty. It is a delicate flower that opens its petals only after sunset, and this detail gives it the attributes of grace, timidity and fragility. Jasmine tea is said to sum up one of the most sophisticated and ethereal flavours, plus many therapeutic and cosmetic properties.

The healing properties of this flower address especially the nervous system, banishing stress, headaches and fatigue. It is also recognized as an aphrodisiac. So, it is a wonderful gift of nature, revealing its secrets while blooming for your visual enjoyment in a luxury glass teapot.

Young leaves of jasmine tea are twisted in thin strips and bound manually under the form of acorns, within which slumbers a story that comes ...
... to life when you drink the tea. The jasmine pearls turn into lotuses. While lazily opening its petals, they bring forth a garland of jasmine flowers that give the transparent infusion a light yellow colour and a refined aroma. It is a kind of tea with a spectacular presentation which offers many surprises. It should be infused at 90/95 degrees C in a transparent teapot, so that you can enjoy the spectacle. After having poured water, you should wait patiently for the jasmine pearls to bloom. The flower opens slowly, allowing the garland of jasmine flowers to rise to the surface. It looks spectacular! The taste of the infusion is very smooth, with a slight jasmine aroma and a sweet taste. It is a tea with a very good image, an interesting and spectacular experience.

Jasmine tea is one of the best teas that can be found in Europe. It is characterized by a splendid harmony between the taste of tea buds and the fresh jasmine fragrance. After being handpicked, the buds are warmed as in the case of green tea. Then they are carefully stored for a few weeks before blooming. Tea buds are then manually rolled, taking a round shape, and after that they are placed together with fresh jasmine flowers, for several nights. Jasmine pearls make a shining, refreshing tea with a strong flavour.

Many so-called jasmine teas are artificially perfumed with oils or other methods. But the real jasmine tea is completely natural and captures the delicate jasmine flavour without covering the sweet and delicate taste of the tea. It contains only Camellia Sinensis. Jasmine flowers are removed once their flavour entered the flower. Sweet and almost sugary, it has a very fine and aerated taste. The delicate quality of the flavour is given by the combination of two small leaves and an unopened leaf bud. Younger leaves have a finer flavour.

Any fan of jasmine tea should try this artisanal wonder, this breathtaking sensory show offered by jasmine pearls.
