Jasmine Pearls Green Tea – Hand Rolled Elegance from Fujian 🌸🍵
Delight in one of China's most prized teas — 100% hand-rolled jasmine pearls, crafted from tender young tea leaves and silver buds. At nightfall, freshly plucked jasmine blossoms are layered over rich, fruity green tea, allowing the delicate floral aroma to naturally infuse the leaves.
Once imbued with this intoxicating fragrance, the leaves are gently rolled into perfect pearls and dried — a centuries-old artisanal process from Fujian, revered by tea connoisseurs worldwide.
Renowned for its sweet, highly fragrant aroma and smooth, mellow taste, this dragon pearl jasmine tea is both luxurious and comforting. Traditionally served as a welcome drink in China, it remains a timeless expression of elegance in every cup.

🌿 Why This Tea? The jasmine pearl is one of tea's most iconic and labour-intensive creations — and the gap between a well-made pearl and a poorly made one is vast. Each pearl in this collection is hand-rolled by skilled artisans from tender young leaves and silver buds, then scented at nightfall when jasmine blossoms are at their most fragrant — a deliberate, centuries-old practice that allows the flowers' living aroma to transfer naturally and completely into every leaf. No artificial essence. No shortcuts. Just the patient, painstaking craft that has made Fujian jasmine pearls the benchmark of Chinese tea artistry for generations. And then there is the ritual of watching them unfurl — each pearl slowly blooming open in hot water, releasing its fragrance in a slow, elegant reveal that is as much a visual experience as a sensory one.
👤 Who Is It For? This tea is for the connoisseur who appreciates craft as much as flavour — someone who wants to hold something genuinely rare and handmade in their hands before they even brew it. It's for the jasmine tea lover ready to experience the category at its most refined and authentic, and for the green tea drinker who wants a cup that is aromatic, gentle, and completely free of bitterness. It makes one of the most elegant gifts imaginable — for a host, a tea lover, a wedding, or any occasion where you want to present something that is visually beautiful, culturally rich, and utterly unlike anything available on the high street. And for yourself — because some teas are worth slowing down for.
🕘 When to Drink It? Jasmine Pearls belong to the unhurried hours — slow mornings when the day has not yet made its demands, quiet afternoons when you want something fragrant and meditative, or early evenings as a gentle, low-caffeine transition between the activity of the day and the calm of the night. They are the perfect guest tea — traditionally served in China as a welcome drink, their unfurling pearls and rising jasmine fragrance creating an immediate moment of beauty and warmth that no other tea quite replicates. Use a glass teapot or clear cup if possible, so the pearls' slow, graceful opening becomes part of the experience. Brew at 75–80°C for 2–3 minutes — never boiling, to protect the delicate green tea base and keep the jasmine's natural sweetness clean, bright, and perfectly intact.
