Jasmine Fuding Imperial green tea is a fragrant tea, obtained through a scenting process with jasmine flowers. It has a delicious and rich jasmine aroma: the secret lies in the production process, when the tea leaves are scented with fresh jasmine flower petals at least twice. Perfect after meals, it has a long, very fresh floral aftertaste. It is recommended to infuse in glass accessories to enjoy the beauty of the leaves rising and falling in the water, creating a wonderful dance. The leaves of this Jasmine Fuding Imperial green tea, small in size and gently rolled, are of a rather dark gray-green with an abundance of silvery-white buds. Once infused, the aroma of jasmine spreads unmistakably, accompanied by very light fresh herbaceous notes and a vegetal and fruity hint reminiscent of olive oil. The color of the liquor in the cup is a rather dark golden yellow. The first infusion of Jasmine Fuding Imperial green tea has top notes of white flowers, including of course jasmine. The taste is very sweet, reminiscent of white sugar syrup; a slight vegetal note is also perceived, just barely. With the second infusion, the herbaceous notes are emphasized and hints of alpine flowers like gentian are noticeable. With the third infusion and numerous subsequent infusions, hints of lemon balm appear, and the body becomes oilier, with hints of young olive oil in the flavor. The flowers are always present even in the finish, but the jasmine note is more discreet compared to the initial infusions. The initial notes of Jasmine Fuding Imperial green tea are predominantly floral: there are not only hints of jasmine, but also of other white flowers like lily of the valley and magnolia, along with hints of orange blossoms. The intermediate notes are vegetal and delicate: freshly cut grass and aromatic herbs, such as verbena. A slight citrus scent of bergamot is also perceived, contributing to an overall sensation of extreme freshness. The body is light and silky, with just a slight astringency on the finish and an extremely long floral persistence, of which jasmine is the undisputed protagonist. Fuding, in the Fujian province, is the place of origin of Jasmine Fuding Imperial green tea. It comes from Da Bai and Da Hao tea trees from Fuding. It is produced with the addition of jasmine flower petals to the teas during processing. After scenting by contact, the flower petals are removed, leaving the tea with its unique taste and aroma. Once dried, this tea appears like all high-quality green teas, with small curled tea leaves covered in white hairs. Jasmine Fuding Imperial green tea should be prepared like all green teas, in water around 75°C for 2-3 minutes, using a western infusion method. This tea can be infused 4 or 5 times. To further appreciate this tea, it is recommended to infuse directly in a glass cup, as is commonly done in China. This allows not only to enjoy the wonderful flavor and fragrance, but also to observe the tea leaves slowly expanding and changing during infusion. It is recommended to store in a cool, dry, and dark place.
