What Is Jasmine Yin Hao Tea?
Jasmine Yin Hao , also known as Jasmine Silver Tip, is a high-grade green tea infused with the natural fragrance of jasmine flowers. The name “Yin Hao” translates to “Silver Hair,” referencing the fine white hairs on the young tea buds used in this delicate blend. This tea originates from the misty mountains of Fujian Province, China – the heartland of authentic jasmine tea production.
The production process of Jasmine Yin Hao is truly an art form. Freshly plucked green tea leaves are repeatedly layered with night-blooming jasmine blossoms over several nights. This process allows the tea to absorb the flowers’ aromatic oils naturally – without artificial flavoring. The result is a smooth, floral, and slightly sweet tea with a lingering jasmine bouquet that’s both calming and refreshing.
