Hand-rolled jasmine green tea
Green Tea
Jasmine Dragon Pearls slowly unfurl in the pot, releasing a soft jasmine fragrance around a silky, lightly sweet green tea.
Part brew, part small piece of theatre.
Hand-rolled Chinese green tea
Jasmine Dragon Pearls offer a little theatre with your afternoon tea. Hand-rolled leaves slowly open in the water, releasing soft jasmine fragrance and a silky, lightly sweet green tea beneath.
The story
These pearls start as young green tea leaves and buds, hand-rolled into tight balls and layered with fresh jasmine flowers. The scenting happens at night, when jasmine blossoms open and release their fragrance. The process is repeated several times until the tea holds a soft, lasting floral note without becoming heavy or perfumed.
Drop them into a glass pot and watch them slowly unfurl. The liquor turns a pale champagne gold, the jasmine rises gently, and underneath you find a smooth green tea with a clean, cooling finish. Nothing cloying here, just fragrance and silk.
This is an afternoon tea that asks you to slow down for a moment. It suits a glass teapot on a quiet table, a few minutes where the kettle and the light do most of the work. The pearls will happily give you a second steep, a little gentler than the first.
How to brew it

03Iced
Strain and serve over ice. Gentle and refreshing.
Shop tip: Keep the water below boiling. Too hot and the green tea turns bitter, drowning out the jasmine.

Good questions
Soft jasmine fragrance over a silky, lightly sweet green tea. The floral note is present but never heavy, and the finish stays crisp and cooling.
The 25g pouch makes around 10 cups, the 50g around 20, the 100g around 40, and the 250g roughly 100 cups. Each serving of pearls can be steeped twice.
Yes. As a green tea it contains a moderate amount of caffeine, less than black tea but more than herbal. For evenings, try Decaf Kyushu Sencha Green instead.
No. Milk would muddle the delicate jasmine and the silky texture. This one is best enjoyed on its own.
Keep the pouch sealed in a cool, dry place away from strong smells like coffee or spices. The jasmine fragrance fades if left open.
