Jasmine Pearls by Canton Tea
I actually brewed this last night and this morning. I had two pots last night, and both were simply amazing. I think brewing this in my cast iron pot added an edge to it or something. When I brewed it in my glass pot, the flavor was light and just the right amount of flowery. I think the leaves steeped out rather quickly though, because I left them in the pot. This morning, the taste of flowers is gone, and the green tea is very rough and grassy. The liquor is dark, even though I didn't steep the first cup very long, and much of the flavor is gone. It's very flat. I will try brewing it again in an infusion basket, or using a strainer and pour out all the tea at once. I really like the way the pearls uncurl. It was very fun to watch, so I'd hate to put them into a little basket and hinder that process.
