2026 First Flush High-Mountain Jasmine Meizhan | Single Bud, Premium Flower-Scented Wuyi Black Tea — Apple Blossom Sweet, Floral & Smooth

A single bud. A garden of jasmine. One unforgettable cup.

This is a 2026 first-flush (头春) Meizhan (梅占) harvested from high-altitude mountain gardens as single buds only — the most tender and expressive part of the plant. These buds are then scented with premium-grade fresh jasmine blossoms (特级鲜花窨制) in a traditional process where tea and flowers are layered together until the fragrance is fully absorbed into the leaf.

The result is a tea of rare delicacy and balance. The jasmine is present but never dominant — it weaves through the Meizhan cultivar's own natural floral and fruit character rather than overriding it. The dry leaf carries a fresh green apple sweetness that opens beautifully in the cup: floral and fruity at once, clean and inviting.

The liquor is sweet, mellow, and silky smooth — with a freshness that lingers on the lips and palate long after each sip. The tea base shines through clearly: bright, lively, and sustained. Jasmine that honours the tea. Tea that honours the flower.

Product Description

This 2026 first-flush Jasmine Meizhan is made from single buds harvested at the height of spring from high-altitude mountain gardens. The Meizhan (梅占) cultivar is prized for its naturally floral and fruity character — a quality that makes it an ideal base for jasmine scenting, as the two aromatic profiles complement rather than compete with each other.

The scenting process uses premium fresh jasmine blossoms applied in the traditional layering method, allowing the fragrance to be fully absorbed into the tender buds over time. The result is a dry leaf with a distinctive fresh green apple sweetness that opens in the cup into a seamless blend of jasmine and the cultivar's own native florals and fruit.

The liquor is sweet, mellow, and silky — smooth from the first sip, with a sustained freshness and a lingering finish that stays on the lips long after the cup is set down. The jasmine is clear but never overpowering; the tea base remains bright and expressive throughout. A tea where everything is in balance.
