Green teas are known for grassy
or vegetal flavors. They contain several B Vitamins and Vitamin C, amino acids
and have one of the highest concentrations of catechins (a flavonoid with
powerful antioxidant activity) among teas, second only to white teas. The active
ingredient in green tea is EGCG also known as epigallocatechin -3 - gallate.
Taste: Foojoy’s
Summer Jasmine Green tea combines organically grown green tealeaves and fresh
jasmine blossoms from the Jasminium sambac plant to make a truly aromatic brew.
(Jasmine ‘Grand Duke of Tuscany’- Jasminum sambac). During
processing it takes four hours or so for the tea to absorb the fragrance and
flavor of the jasmine blossoms and for the highest grades, this process may be
repeated as many as seven times. Due to the fact that the tea has absorbed
moisture from the flowers, it must be re-fired to prevent spoilage. The spent
flowers are removed from the final product, as the flowers are completely dry
and contain no aroma. This scented tea is soothing with a delicate floral aroma.
It is USDA and IMO Swiss Certified Organic.
How to brew: Use glass-based or porcelain tea ware, do not use
aluminum pan or kettles. Rinse teacup and teapot with hot water. Use about 1-2
teaspoons of tea for every cup of water. Steep tealeaves in hot water at 158°F
(70°c) to 176°F (80°c) for 1 minute for the first and second brewing.
Gradually increase steeping time and temperature for subsequent brewing. This
tea will generally yield 3-4 infusions per batch of leaves and will often yield
its best flavor in the second and third infusion. Steeping green tea
too hot or too long will result in a bitter, astringent brew, regardless of the
initial quality. It is thought that excessively hot water results in tannin
chemical release, which is especially problematic in green teas, as they have
higher contents of these.
Personal adjustments: If you find that your tea tastes bitter and
requires milk, sugar or lemon to counteract the bitterness, we recommend
adjusting with shorter steeping times, lower temperature water, or fewer tea
leaves.
Water for Tea: Cold, clear, pure water is recommended and tap water,
especially hard water, is to be avoided. Fresh spring water is ideal. Filtered
water is also desirable. Hard water or strong tasting water will obliterate even
the most delicious tea.
