This tea, marked as organic, did not strike me at first as something special but as I am a lover of jasmine teas, it has grown on me over time. And now, for months already, this is the tea I usually start my mornings with. I have to say this is one of the best non-pearl jasmine teas I have tasted. The taste of jasmine is there but for me it is not as strong as in jasmine pearls. The result is very mild-tasting, friendly and well-balanced: the green tea does not get lost behind the jasmine but does not dominate either. What is a bit rare for a jasmine tea is that it tastes really fresh (and refreshing — not grassy though). Special points for exquisite aroma of the tea while in the bag. Be careful not to oversteep.
