Jasmine tea belongs to reprocessed tea, and its tea fragrance and jasmine fragrance are mutually integrated. Jasmine tea is a bulk product of scented tea, with a vast production area, high output and rich varieties.
Jasmine, as the first fragrance in the world, was listed as a tribute in the Qing Dynasty, with a history of more than 15 years. Jasmine tea, also called Jasmine Fragrant Tablets, is generally made of roasted green tea and double petals of Jasmine Bone Flowers in dog days, which are made by blending and scenting. It is known as the hometown of jasmine in China.
3. the principle of scenting/the process of flowers emitting fragrance and tea embryo absorbing fragrance
1. Flowers emitting fragrance: Jasmine flowers emitting fragrance is a biochemical change. Under the action of enzymes, temperature, water, oxygen, etc., mature jasmine flowers decompose fragrant substances, and with physiological changes, flowers open and continuously emit fragrance.
2. aroma absorption of tea embryo: under the physical adsorption, tea embryo absorbs a lot of water at the same time. Due to the infiltration of water, chemical adsorption occurs. Under the action of damp heat, complex chemical changes have taken place, and the tea soup gradually turns yellow and bright, and the taste is light and astringent and turns into strong alcohol, forming a unique fragrance, color and taste of scented tea.
