Our exploration begins in the misty foothills of China, the birthplace of jasmine tea, where the intertwining of jasmine blossoms with tea leaves has evolved into a refined craft. As the story of jasmine tea unfolds, we examine how the blossoms are carefully selected and harvested at the peak of their fragrance, which typically occurs at night when the petals are most open and exuding their heady scent.

Listeners will be guided through the intricate 'scenting' process, where tea leaves are layered with jasmine flowers to absorb their essence—a traditional method that can be repeated several times to enhance the intensity of the flavor. The artistry behind the tea is as delicate as the jasmine flower itself, requiring a balance of timing and temperature to perfect this enchanting infusion.

Beyond its alluring aroma and taste, jasmine tea is also steeped in cultural significance and health benefits. The podcast will touch upon the ways in which jasmine tea has been savored through various dynasties, becoming a staple in ceremonies and a symbol of hospitality in Asia. Additionally, the potential health benefits of jasmine tea, from its stress-reducing properties to its contribution to cardiovascular health, are illuminated through discussions with botanists and health experts.

Finally, the journey culminates with the mastery of brewing - where the temperature and steeping time are paramount in achieving the perfect cup. We’ll share insights from seasoned tea sommeliers to help listeners transform their brewing technique and enhance their tasting experience.
