Serenade (Jasmine Tea)

$19.99

"a slow song in a cup. Floral, tender, lingering."

Jasmine — a fine blend of freshly plucked jasmine blossoms and green tea; medium-bodied, sweet, smooth, and silky. Good for multiple steepings. The green tea is picked by hand and prepared, then set aside until the jasmine blossoms are ready. The two are paired at just the right time to create this harmony of fruity flavors on a medium-bodied green tea base.

Tasting notes & sources

Herbal infusions aren't tea

Herbal blends (tisanes) contain no Camellia sinensis, so most are caffeine-free. Always use freshly boiled water for herbal and fruit infusions — the UK Food Standards Agency advises it for food safety. Follow the producer's directions where they differ, and check with a doctor about herbs during pregnancy or with medications.

Why ISO 3103?

ISO 3103 is a standardized tasting method used for sensory evaluation and quality control. It's how professionals compare teas fairly, not necessarily the best-tasting cup.
