Product Description
Jasmine Tea, closely associated with the city of Fuzhou in China. Jasmine was introduced to China during the Han dynasty and was first used to scent tea soon after. The Jasmine flower is considered one of the holy flowers in Buddhism and has religious and cultural significance throughout Asia. Jasmine Tea is also closely associated with its medicinal uses and with a meditative ritual of preparation known as the Gongfu Tea Ceremony. The Jasmine plant is believed to have been introduced into China from Eastern South Asia via India during the Han Dynasty (202 BC – 9 AD, 25–220 AD) and was being used to scent tea around the fifth century. However, Jasmine Tea did not become widespread until the Qing Dynasty (1644 to 1912 AD), when tea started to be exported in large quantities to the West. Nowadays, it’s still a common drink served in tea shops around the world.
