Jasmine Dong Ting Bi Luo Chun
Jasmine Dong Ting Bi Luo Chun is a Chinese green tea scented with jasmine blossoms. The leaf offers a soft spring-green base beneath the naturally sweet floral aroma.
Our tasting notes describe a silky, smooth cup with jasmine lingering after the sip. Brew at the cooler green-tea temperature below and try a second infusion for a lighter floral finish.
