Overview Brand : Silk Road Teas Item Form : Teabags Flavor : Organic Jasmin Silver Tip Tea Variety : Green Unit Count : 1.00 Count About this item Origin: Grown in the Fujian Provi nce, Silver Tip is a Jasmine Yin Hao style of a higher grade of green tea. One will note an abundance of silver buds and its rich green leaves, scented with jasmine flower petals. Jasmine scented teas are often given as gifts or served with meals around the holidays and New Years. Artisanally Crafted: Yin Hao is made using small leaf varietal that has a very permeable leaf surface. Higher grades are plucked early in the spring and have a high content of silver leaves or unopened buds. The leaf is indirectly or slowly dried to preserve the flavor of the leaf and maintain its natural shape. The leaves are then kept cool until the jasmine flowers blossom later in the summer. The timing of the jasmine harvest is critical to get just the right scent and sweetness. Taste the Difference: The jasmine scent is natural, sweet and not too strong, making the tea soothing and pleasingly balanced. Light vegetal notes and jasmine flavors. A refreshing cup it for everyday use and always relaxing. Steep Mindfully: Set temperature between 185-195° F and steep for 2 minutes and taste. This tea can steep longer if greater flavor is desired; over steeping will bring on some astringency. Tea Bags are made from Non-GMO Biodegradable corn silk.
