Jasmine with Flowers

This is one of the most popular teas in China and nearly always the main tea on offer at Chinese restaurants were it complements a wide range of food and is also valued for its thirst quenching quality and as an aid to digestion.

Sweetly aromatic with a gently perfumed taste, this is a superior grade with Jasmine flowers not just the leaves. While most people drink this tea black, a few take it with milk and sugar.

Unlike our coffees, our teas are all sold pre-packed. We source them ourselves, cut and blend them if necessary on the premises before packing them is small runs.

Teas mixed on the premises include Organic Breakfast Tea and herbal blends like Sleepeasy.

Before being exported teas are usually processed at origin. Black teas are fermented while drying and Green Teas are dried faster and not allowed to ferment.

Of the fermented black teas the strongest are teas that go through the (self-explanatory) crush tear and curl process known as CTC. But even just having small sized pieces (ie fannings) can make tea stronger as the surface area is increased.
