By D. Clephas Harney & Sons' Dragon Pearl Jasmine tea is one of the cleanest and most delicate of commercially-available teas I've encountered.
My first experience with it was at the Williamsburg Lodge, in Virginia, where it was served over the 3 days of an annual convention I attend there. While a shame to have to sip it standing up or moving between speaker sessions, I had a remarkable sense of being elevated above the rush around me. The bouquet is evocative and tended to linger in the air yet was in no way overpowering... more like a stroll through a jasmine-studded garden. Upon tasting, the first impression seems to register near the tip of the tongue, as if sweet, and as the flavor develops in the mouth there is a recognition that it is, in fact, tea but without insistent tannic or other strong overtones. A fine impression remains when the cup is set down and the intake of breath recharges the sensation.
There is no settling of heavy flavors-- a cup is as fine and pleasurable from first sip to last. I also have found that this tea maintains its character despite the array of waters I have used to make it. Some brews become distinctly unpleasant when the leaves are introduced to certain mineral-rich well water or treated city water. The best experience no doubt is when using filtered water, but it is not requisite to enjoying Jasmine Pearl.
As a wake-me-up tea on a work morning, I would likely choose a more robust leaf. However, for a proper moment of relaxation-- or an attempt to induce one in the midst of chaos!-- I hope to never run out of this tea.
