Jasmine Star
Jasmine Star
The lovely Mao Feng Green Tea from Fujian province of South East China is infused, for several successive nights with hand-picked jasmine blossoms. The flavour is full-bodied but the tea is soothing and the aroma bright, natural and cleansing. An ideal companion to most food. Good to serve iced throughout the summer.
