Jasmine scenting is when tea leaves are heated and mixed with flowers and in between heatings as the leaves cool they suck in the aroma and flavor of the flower. Jasmines teas are USUALLY paired with light green teas but after drinking a few jasmine blacks i really have to admit that I think I prefer it as a black tea. Something else that’s notable about this tea is the the cultivar (bamboo shoot yellow dawn) has a pleasantly low acidity and resteeps many times.
