Jasmine tea is not green tea, it is scented tea and a reprocessed tea. Jasmine tea is a tea variety made from specially crafted tea or refined green tea base and jasmine flowers. In terms of raw materials, jasmine tea is a combination of green tea and jasmine. Jasmine tea is made on the basis of green tea, and its raw materials are mainly green tea embryos and jasmine flowers.

Tea can be divided into green tea, green tea (oolong tea), black tea, yellow tea, white tea and dark tea according to different processing techniques. Green tea is the only non-fermented tea among the six tea categories. Green tea is made from the new shoots of suitable tea trees and is made through typical processes such as greening, rolling and drying. The color of its dry tea and the tea soup after brewing and the bottom of the leaves are mainly green, hence the name green tea.

Generally, the tea base used for high-quality jasmine tea is preferably young buds. Take Fujian scented tea as an example: the ones with long and plump strips, many white hairs, and no leaves are on top, followed by those with one bud and one leaf, two leaves, or many buds with exposed buds. The further down you go, the fewer the buds and the majority of leaves. Low-grade teas are mainly leaves with almost no buds or no buds at all. Its aroma is fresh and long-lasting, the taste is mellow and fresh, the soup is bright yellow-green, and the bottom of the leaves is tender and soft.

Based on the unique adsorption properties of tea leaves and the fragrance characteristics of jasmine flowers, jasmine tea is processed and scented through a series of technological processes. It not only maintains the rich and refreshing natural tea flavor of green tea, but also is full of the fresh aroma of jasmine flowers. .
