Yamamotoyama Jasmine tea has an exceptionally pleasant flavor and aroma. One of the best bag Jasmine teas I have encountered in this country. Over the past year, I have purchased eight different brands of Jasmine bag tea on Amazon. This assortment has ranged from quite good to so bland that I returned it for a refund. Yamamotoyama Jasmine tea ranks among the very best in my book.
I have lived and traveled throughout Asia for much of my life. There, I developed a deep appreciation for this elegant and fragrant tea while traveling in the coastal province of Fujian in China -- considered the epicenter of Jasmine tea.
Loose Jasmine tea or small tea balls (called pearls) are most common in that part of the world. Here in the USA, we do like our convenience. There are certainly a handful of fine bag teas that rival top quality loose or pearl Jasmine tea -- what some purists claim is the ultimate form of Jasmine tea. I've enjoyed all three forms many times in many countries. I suspect there are very few people if any who could reliably detect a quality difference between truly excellent bag, pearl or loose Jasmine tea in a double-blind test -- despite all the popular hype and puffery to the contrary.
The exotic perfumy bouquet and subtle flowery taste of Jasmine petals blended with a fine tea (either green, white or black tea) bring back many fond memories in every cup. I drink this tea daily because I have a fondness for the taste experience, especially first thing in the morning.
I'm not a food neurotic, so I have no interest in the many questionable claims about the supposed cleansing properties, the touted anti-oxidant components, or the consciousness raising qualities of this "don't panic, it's organic" beverage. It is not medicine nor a psychoactive substance, it's tea.
Jasmine flower (originally coming from Persia) has been enjoyed in tea for over a thousand years. As much as I'm an ardent fan of this uniquely flavored tea, I have not once levitated or achieved Nirvana while drinking it. Sorry to disappoint. However, I do experience a lovely warm feeling when enjoying this wonderful tea that often gives me pause and puts a smile on my face. I'm not sure I could ask more from this simple but alluring beverage. I hope you too will frequently enjoy Yamamotoyama Jasmine tea.

This is NO purple jasmine tea! Don’t be deceived!
I searched for PURPLE jasmine tea specifically and this came up on the Amazon search. The package is deceiving because it shows the picture of the tea inside of the tea cup as being pink but the tea itself is green when brewed. I feel deceived to say the least. If I knew it I wouldn’t have bought it. It also does NOT taste or smell like jasmine. It has more green tea than jasmine. Do NOT a waste your money buying a bad and deceiving product. I am only giving one star because there isn’t an option to zero star.
