Mekong Jasmine Green Tea - Return to Mae Salong :

Lovers of floral flavors will be conquered by this delicious Mekong jasmine green tea. This green tea from China reminds me of my travels in Mae Salong, I hope to make you travel during this tasting.

Many Chinese fleeing Mao went down the Mekong river for a hundred kilometers and arrived in Thailand. From their integrations result magnificent tea plantations more exceptional than the others.
The inhabitants have the custom in this village to serve you Jasmine tea as soon as you land with them. If you think you don't like jasmine tea, give yourself a chance, it is simply G.R.A.N.D.I.O.S.E!

This Mekong jasmine green tea is a true ode to Asia. It is composed of green tea from Fujian, the preferred drink of Buddhist monks, and jasmine, a plant that is grown mainly in Asia, particularly in China.

By drinking this jasmine tea, you cross borders without leaving your armchair. Imagine yourself for a moment in the heart of a luxuriant field of tea trees or in a jasmine plantation, smelling the bewitching scent of its small, elegant and delicate white flowers. This Mekong jasmine green tea is not just a tea, it is a total immersion in the Asian nature.

What are the flavors of Mekong Jasmine green tea?

To the nose, it seems difficult to find a more floral tea. To the taste, this drink does not betray this first impression. The floral flavors are naturally embodied by the jasmine flowers that have accompanied this tea for two weeks to transmit all their fragrance and taste. But Fujian tea is also a very floral and herbaceous tea. A wind of freshness blows on your tasting.

Mekong Jasmine green tea: from the plantation to the cup

Fujian green tea is a tea grown in China. Like all green teas, it is not oxidized, so it follows a specific transformation process to stop oxidation immediately. Also, the green tea leaves are first roasted. As this Fujian tea is produced in China, we adopt the Chinese method which consists in placing the tea leaves in a metal basin at 100°. A few seconds are enough to kill the enzymes responsible for the oxidation. The tea leaves are then softened and we move on to the rolling stage. The objective is to give them a specific shape that will influence their taste. Finally, for a perfect conservation, they are dried in a room where heat and humidity are controlled by the Chinese tea experts.

When the tea leaves are dry, they are combined with jasmine flowers for two weeks. This is when the magic happens. The jasmine delicately blends with the flavors of the green tea to give you an inimitable Mekong jasmine green tea.

Food and tea: David Vanille's pairings

Mekong jasmine green tea is a product that breathes China, we can only imagine a combination with Chinese food for a rich and intense taste experience. With imperial chicken, shrimps sautéed with garlic and soy sauce or with egg rolls, this Mekong jasmine green tea is irresistible. For dessert, combine it with a candied fruit cake.
