From Gorreana

This "Special Edition" Jasmine green tea is one of the finest teas to ever come from our 5th generation factory. Created in honor of Mr. Jose do Canto the founding father of European tea production with his introduction of tea to the region of the Azores, with the recruitment of skilled tea masters from Macau in the 1870’s to teach this ancient tradition and it’s prize production methods.

Finally getting around to writing about this one. The last of the 3 teas I brought home from the Azores last summer. I had tried it a few times, but I guess never got around to writing about it.

At the basics, it is a green tea from Gorreana Tea Company on San Miguel and added Jasmine.

Brewing is simple, although I might up the steeping time next time I brew it. The green tea base is great, but the Jasmine flavor is so hidden I hardly notice it is there. If I tried it without knowing what it was, I would guess t was just green tea.

So, next time I will up the steep time to see if I can pull out a little more of that Jasmine taste.

Other than that, this is a great tea. Tea from The Azores has a very distinct and specific flavor to it. Probably due to the soil being volcanic remnants, it gives the tea a hard to describe taste. Very different from American or Asian grown tea.

It’s one of those things every tea fan should try. I am a big fan.
