:: I prefer Jasmine Tea :: Jasmine tea hails from the Fujian province of China. It is infused with the delicate scent of the night-blooming jasmine flowers which are harvested during the day and stored in a cool place until night. During the night, the flowers bloom with full fragrance. They are, then, layered over the tea leaves during the scenting process. The quality of Jasmine tea is determined by the quality of green tea used as its base and the effectiveness of the scenting. Jasmine teas are very pleasing with strong-tasting foods and are both soothing and refreshing.
