Jasmine Tea

Traditional Jasmine-Scented Green Tea from Valley Gardens

Our Jasmine Tea follows the centuries-old tradition of scenting fresh green tea with night-blooming jasmine flowers. Cultivated in Nepal's lush valley gardens, this aromatic tea undergoes a meticulous scenting process where fresh Jasminum sambac blossoms are layered with finished green tea multiple times. As the jasmine flowers open during the night, they release their intoxicating fragrance, which the tea leaves absorb naturally. By morning, the flowers are removed and the process repeats, building layers of floral complexity into every leaf.

The base green tea—a delicate spring harvest from hillside gardens—provides a light, slightly sweet foundation that carries jasmine's perfume without competing with it. Each sip delivers the heady, romantic aroma of fresh jasmine blossoms balanced by green tea's gentle vegetal notes and subtle astringency. The liquor brews a pale golden-green color, visually reflecting the tea's delicate nature. This is jasmine tea at its most authentic: naturally scented, elegantly restrained, and deeply aromatic.

Unlike artificially flavored jasmine teas that taste synthetic or perfume-like, our traditionally scented version offers pure floral enchantment with nuanced depth. The mood-enhancing properties of jasmine's natural aromatics combine with green tea's gentle caffeine content to create a tea that's simultaneously uplifting and calming. Perfect for afternoon contemplation, social gatherings, or any moment when you desire sophistication in a cup. The antioxidant benefits of green tea complement jasmine's stress-reducing aromatherapy, making this a holistic wellness beverage as much as a sensory delight.

Hilly Country Side Region

800-1,500 meters above sea level

Humid subtropical with warm, consistent temperatures

Our jasmine and green tea base thrive in Nepal's protected valley gardens, where hillsides create natural windbreaks and trap moisture from monsoon rains. At elevations between 800 and 1,500 meters, these gardens experience consistently warm temperatures, high humidity, and filtered sunlight—conditions that produce tender green tea leaves and encourage jasmine vines to bloom prolifically. The valley microclimate prevents temperature extremes, allowing both plants to develop optimal aromatic compounds.

Rich valley soils, supplemented by organic matter from surrounding forests, provide the nutrients necessary for lush growth. The jasmine flowers grown here are renowned for their intense fragrance, a quality attributed to the humid air that concentrates essential oils within the blossoms. This terroir produces the perfect raw materials for traditional scenting: delicate green tea that won't overpower jasmine's perfume, and jasmine flowers potent enough to impart lasting fragrance through multiple infusions.
