Teas scented with flowers have been enjoyed in China for thousands of years.  Jasmine scented greens are the best known.  The aromatic flower blooms only at night which is when the teas are scented.  High grades are sometimes scented up to seven times while ordinary grades are scented up to three times.   Flowers can occasionally be found in jasmine tea but quality is usually determined by the intensity of the fragrance and the grade of tea.

Jasmine teas are very pleasing with strong-tasting foods and are both soothing and refreshing.
