More about the process:
When jasmine flowers begin to bloom and release their fragrance, layers of tea leaves and jasmine flowers are carefully arranged, stacked between 10 and 15 inches high. Once distributed, the tea and flowers are piled into mounds 4-6 feet in diameter for 4-6 hours, depending on the desired temperature and moisture levels. During this time, the jasmine blossoms open and infuse the tea leaves with their scent. The temperature and humidity are closely monitored to ensure the flowers remain open, and the piles are turned to evenly distribute the fragrance while managing internal conditions.
After 4-6 hours, the jasmine flowers release their full aroma and begin to yellow. The spent flowers are then removed, and the tea leaves are air-dried as necessary. The process may vary depending on the desired quality and intensity of the jasmine scent. Lower-quality jasmine tea might go through fewer scenting cycles and reuse jasmine or other flowers, like magnolia. Higher-quality jasmine tea undergoes up to seven scenting cycles using fresh jasmine flowers each time. The duration of each cycle can vary by up to two hours depending on the number of scenting rounds.
Once all cycles are completed and the tea leaves are air-dried for the final time, the jasmine tea is either graded and packaged or undergoes one final light scenting to refresh the aroma without adding extra moisture.
