Taster’s Review:
I do love a good Jasmine Pearl, and this one is definitely a good one!
The beautiful, tightly wound pearls unfurl slowly as they release their flavor and fragrance. The aroma is beautifully jasmine, evoking thoughts of sitting out in a garden as the breeze wafts through jasmine vines to deliver the sweet, exotic scent. It’s wonderful imagery to enjoy on this wet and chilly fall evening!
The flavor is just as nice as the aroma. It has notes of vegetation, but, it tastes more of fresh, vibrant leafy greens (think of a fresh, very mild baby spinach), rather than what I’d call grassy. This vegetal note melds quite beautifully with the light, refreshing note of jasmine.
I like that the jasmine here is strong enough to be enjoyed without coming off as soapy. It is a soft type of flavor and fragrance, not sharp or artificial.
A very enjoyable experience from Nature’s Tea Leaf.
