Product Story & Origin
The World's Most Beloved Scented Tea In Loose Leaf Form
Jasmine tea has been one of China's most treasured teas for over a thousand years. Dating back to the Song Dynasty (960–1279 AD), jasmine-scented tea was originally reserved for imperial courts and nobility a luxury so prized that the process of its creation was considered an art form. The traditional method involves layering fresh green tea leaves with jasmine blossoms during the night, when the flowers open fully and release their extraordinary fragrance. The tea absorbs the jasmine's scent slowly, naturally, and completely.
The result is a tea that carries one of the most universally beloved fragrances in the world delicate, floral, clean, and unmistakably beautiful. At Palm Beach Teas, our Jasmine Leaf Green Tea honors this ancient tradition with a premium loose leaf jasmine green tea that delivers the full, authentic jasmine experience: fragrant, light, easy to drink, and deeply calming.
This is the tea that has been shared at weddings, offered to honored guests, and brewed in quiet moments of reflection for over a thousand years. It is elegant without effort, calming without sedation, and beautiful in both the cup and the ritual of brewing it. Whether you are new to loose leaf green tea or a seasoned enthusiast, jasmine green tea is one of those timeless classics that belongs in every tea collection. This is premium loose leaf tea at its most graceful.

How to Brew the Perfect Jasmine Green Tea
• Use water at 175–185°F never boiling. Boiling water destroys the delicate jasmine fragrance compounds and the green tea catechins, resulting in a flat, bitter cup.
• Keep steep time to 2 minutes maximum for the most delicate, fragrant experience. Three minutes gives a slightly fuller, more green tea-forward cup.
• Use a glass teapot or clear mug to fully appreciate the beautiful pale golden color and rising jasmine steam.
• Inhale the fragrance before drinking the aromatherapy benefits of jasmine are experienced through scent as well as taste.
• Excellent iced: brew double-strength, cool, pour over ice. The jasmine fragrance remains beautiful even cold.
• Re-steep 2–3 times each infusion gives a subtly different but equally beautiful jasmine experience.
