I am revisiting this again tonight. I am brewing this in the gaiwan and with short infusions. I am using a LOT of leaf vs. water. The lilac aromas are coming up very intensely. It is difficult to believe this is not scented in some way! I do think this tea is quite a beauty. I am also getting a bit of the vanilla flavor coming up here. I was scolded a bit the last time I reviewed this for eating it with a mango and I can see why. Tea is a very personal thing and we all enjoy different flavors. Mostly I like darker/roastier oolongs and I don’t really think this is a personal favorite, very high on the flowers, but I’m happy for those of you that are loving it. :-D
You don’t like Jasmine teas much either?
not so much.
me neither!! blegh
Teavivre made a jasmine pearl that I thought was ok but I would still never buy it
I like the scent and flavor, and also, not all Jasmine teas are heavily scented. Some are more mild, you just have to find the right one…or not. :))
