My favorite sun tea
This is my favorite tea for sun tea. I often add a lemony herb from my garden. I've tried it with lemongrass, lemon verbena, or lemon balm. Love, love, love the floral scent.
The most tender top two organic tea leaves and bud are hand-rolled into small pearls and infused with the essence of jasmine in this classic display tea. Grown and harvested by the Miao farmers of Xinmin Village, this tea is grown at over 5,500 feet above sea level where the days are warm and sunny, and the nights cool and crisp. To create this scented tea, fragrant jasmine blossoms are intermingled with premium, hand rolled green tea pearls according to a traditional tea scenting process that dates back more than nine centuries. The organic green tea absorbs the aroma of the fresh jasmine flowers, making the pearls sweet and fragrant. The blossoms are then removed after the scenting process, leaving only the organic jasmine-infused tea pearls. This process is repeated four to six times for our Organic Jasmine Pearl Green Tea.
This Fair Trade Certified tea is sourced from the southwest region of China’s Guizhou Province (equidistant from the well-known tea regions of Yunnan and Hunan). Interior provinces such as Guizhou have not experienced the same growth in income and alleviation of poverty as the coastal cities and provinces. As a result, tea projects in these more remote regions are a particularly welcome economic development.
The straw-colored infusion of this organic Jasmine Pearl Green Tea yields a much lighter-bodied, and more subtle green tea flavor than our traditional Jasmine Green Tea. However, because the green tea flavor is more subtle, our Jasmine Pearl is perceived as having a stronger jasmine flavor compared to the Jasmine Green Tea.
Ingredients: organic and Fair Trade Certified Chinese green tea
Scented teas begin with the same top-quality organic tea as our non-scented teas, but are exposed to a particular scent during manufacturing. As a result, the tea absorbs and retains the aroma throughout its lifetime. Some of the most well known scented teas are combined with flowers such as: jasmine, magnolia, and osmanthus. Others are more savory and scented with smoke such as Lapsang Souchong. Scented teas are often confused with flavored teas (which is why we include them in our flavored tea listings), however they are technically unflavored. Sometimes, lesser forms of scented tea are mimicked by using a flavoring.
At Arbor Teas, we believe tea should be brewed to suit your personal taste. We’re happy to make recommendations to get you started, but don’t hesitate to experiment! When brewing your tea, your main considerations are tea quantity, water temperature, and steeping time. We recommend green and white teas to be steeped for 2 to 3 minutes in water heated to not-quite-boiling, just as bubbles begin to form on the bottom of the pan (approximately 170 to 180 degrees F). For the best flavor, use fresh water whenever possible. Try not to steep your tea longer than necessary, as you’ll extract undesirable bitterness from the leaves. If you want a stronger brew, don’t steep longer, just use more tea. And don’t forget to re-steep your tea leaves to get the most out of your leaf!

"Such a beautiful tea! Take a moment to admire the pearled leaves before infusing them. Then enjoy the deliciously floral and light-bodied liquor they produce."
"I love to make this Jasmine as an iced tea in our Cold Brew Iced Tea Maker. It is so elegant unfurled and the taste of cold jasmine in the summer is a real delight."
"Infuse this organic tea from China in clear wine glasses to "wow" your dinner guests as they watch it unfurl!"

Greetings again fine tea lovers, I just did a review on the Jasmine Green Tea leaves. As I mentioned then there was a time that I was not able to have this fine tea. I ordered it over a year and a half ago. Fortunately I also ordered the small SS Storage Container with the air purge plunger. After all this time it does taste a bit different, but still above par. I will compare it to what started me enjoying this tea. Unfortunately it was in restaurants with tea bags where I was told that the blossom's were wrapped in the tea leaves. Don't know if this was true - but could explain why there was not a strong aroma of the Jasmine. The info on this says made in a traditional method with the blossoms removed. Regardless I truly do enjoy this for it is traditional, organic, and loose, etc. dk+
This is the best jasmine tea I have ever had!
This jasmine green tea balls are way better than my batch I just finish from another tea company, This tea just makes me smile all day, Thank you!
The aroma alone of this jasmine tea is so soothing it’s something to be dreamed of! If my house could smell as pleasant as this jasmine tea, it would be heaven. The tea itself has such a delicate and well balanced flavor that you will never want your tea to end! Even though this is a green tea, it left me feeling calm and relaxed. I’m glad the bag it came with had water temperature specifications, because I was able to make one of the best cups of jasmine tea I have ever had.
This is a fantastic and refreshing green tea. Light with a wonderful floral aroma that isn’t overwhelming or perfumy. A must try if you are looking for a jasmine green tea!
This is one of the best Jasmine Dragon Pearls I have ever had. I always try every sort of Jasmine Tea i can get my hands on, and I keep coming back to this one. I buy in bulk now, and well worth the price.
This is one of the absolute BEST jasmine teas out there! Unlike most jasmine, it's not over sharp to the nose. There is a beautiful floral note. (lavender like) It's definitely a delicate tea with regards to both the jasmine and green aspects, yet is very flavorful.
Love starting my day with this tea. Great earthy flavor. The flavor of the jasmine isn't overpowering like other versions of this tea I've had in the past.
What an elegant taste! This tea is like a treat to my soul. It's very calming. The smell of jasmine has long lingering effects and it's unbelievably soothing. I really enjoy it! Even though the price seems steep, honestly it doesn't take a lot of pearls to make a flavorful cup, especially if you are not into strong teas. In other words, when elegance is drinkable, it's priceless! Highly recommended!!!
I drink this everyday ever since I got it, morning, afternoon, and sometimes evening. This tea has a phenomenal taste and flavor. I've tried other jasmine green teas and their fatal flaw has been that they left a weird bitter flavor or has a super strong jasmine scent. That's not a problem with this tea. The jasmine is present, full, slightly sweet even, yet not overpowering. The green tea is a calm, refreshing base. I honestly think this is the best tea I have tried in general. It's been perfect with honey and even as a base for bobba tea. Get this. You wont regret it.
These beautiful little gems brew up into a lovely light gold liquid as delicately flavorful as jasmine green tea can be. Magnificent aroma, a bit of heaven on earth.
If you are looking for a tea with a hint of something flora and sweet, but love green tea, this is it! It reminds me of the jasmine flowers I saw in Greece. The jasmine tea has such a particular scent and flavor. The pearls are really beautiful, as well! My husband won't try it, though, because he doesn't like the taste or smell of jasmine.
I've been drinking Jasmine Pearl Tea for at least 10 years. Arbor Teas' Jasmine Pearl Green Tea is by far the best. Lovely aroma and great taste plus it's organic. Can be steeped multiple times and without decrease in flavor. The first whiff of this brewed tea instantly relaxes me.
This is a lovely jasmine tea. Delicate and fragrant. One of my all time favorites.
This tea is great! I mixed it with white pomegranate and mint herbal. I had the two other teas alone and together but when I had them all together this tea is all that I can remember even though I wouldn't drink either of them alone again now that I've had them together!
I've hesitated to spend this much on a tea, but once I open the package and took a whiff, I knew this was a winner. My wife and i like our tea strong, and the flower taste leaps out with no bitterness.
This is a wonderful jasmine pearl tea. The jasmine scent and flavor are prominent but not overwhelming. Delicious!
Amazing aroma delicious flavor and light in body. I found this tea by recommendation when I had come down with a flu and was told of this teas' amazing properties. I'm sure I can't claim it to cure diseases but let me just say this is what my family takes when we get sick (and we don't stay sick for long). I recommend it to everyone and drink it regularly especially when I need a little pep and pick-me-up. Cant say enough about it I absolutely love it... favorite tea hands down.
