Jasmine Chun Hao Customer Reviews

Big rush of jasmine upon opening the packet. Brews greenish yellow, slightly hazy. Aroma and flavor are jasmine but not as powerful as when opening the bag. The brewed aroma is also much better than the off-aroma I got from the jasmine silver needle. The caffeine and astringency is higher than expected, maybe due to the higher than expected temperature. Surprised the bag suggests 195. Eager to try brewing this at a lower temperature. Thinking it could be a 5 star when I get the temperature dialed in. *Update: brewed at 175 for 3 minutes. Seems a bit full bodied. Astringency seems fine. 5 minutes at 175 is a little strong. Will try 2 or 4 minutes next. **Update2: the caffeine seems low. It seemed high on a previous review so I guess it averages to medium haha.

Light Jasmine scent, a decent alternative to the pearls if you want something cheaper

A light, floral tea as a gift for a friend. They said its very calming and balancing.

This is one of my favorites when I need to take a few minutes to relax! A delicate, floral taste

Fragrant and subtle this tea is a winner for sure!

This tea is DIVINE! Beautiful green tea with a heavy floral aroma. The jasmine taste is full and fragrant. Good for multiple infusions. Careful not to steep too long, or it can get 'soapy.'

Light refreshing and the perfect floral taste and smell.

Like sipping a caramel jasmine biscuit! I love this with my morning toast

The dry tea has a complex mix of fruitiness and mineral notes with a very mild hint of Jasmine. It has a very light golden liquor with a faint fruity straw scent. The flavor is a nice balance between flowery Jasmine and a mild minerally oolong. Jasmine is my favorite tea and while this is not my new favorite Jasmine, it is a very nice tea, especially for the price.

A nice jasmine tea, very soothing and a little floral and sweet.

Great jasmine tea for a great price. Perfect tea during a cold winter day.

I personally think this is just as delicious as the phoenix pearls jasmine tea but that could just be me. Love the jasmine chun hao will definitely get it again.

Very strong Jasmine smell. It s very good if steeped properly. Can be bitter if oversteeped, but that s how it works.

A nice solid jasmine green. Great for cold brewing and mixing with fruit teas or herbals to give that great jasmine flavor. Would buy again as I like to have jasmine tea on hand as a staple.

I very flowery and relaxing afternoon tea. A bit of an odd mouthfeel so I like to have this one with some cookies or a fruit snack.

Has a really great flower flavor I only bought the sample will buy more.

A delicious airy Jasmine tea with hints of floral. It is light and is perfect for a light mid morning energy influx.

Delightful and not at all overpowering. The Jasmine is strong, but doesn t take over. There s a very sweet note at the front of every sip, and a deep grassy note behind, with the jasmine over all.

Wonderful, i’m on my second bag and will continue to reorder

You can't go wrong with jasmine green tea. It is always my favorite. However, this one has a stronger, grassier taste than the Jasmine Yin Hao, and I would recommend Yin Hao over Chun Hao.

Really nice tea, not overpowering with the jasmine flavor, just a really bright, floral tea.

Such a good cup of Jasmine tea, it's floral without being overpowering.

A lovely lighter tea with almost a light scent of jasmine.

Not as deliciously aromiatic as the Jasmine Yin Hao, but still quite nice.

My go-to Jasmine tea. Watch the steep time carefully -- this one can go bitter quickly; if prepared carefully, it's great!

This is now my second favorite tea! I can't even describe how refreshing it is. I've loved Jasmine Silver Needle for years, but this tea is now going to be my go-to since it costs a lot less. I think it would be excellent iced as well.

You can't go wrong with classic jasmine tea after a stressful day. Jasmine tea is one of my favorites, and this one met expectations with its delightful aroma. I'm looking forward to comparing with other jasmine teas on the website.

A lovely jasmine tea, not overpowering at all. I ve enjoyed it recently on chilly evenings and it holds up to a couple steeps.

reminds me of eating chinese food at triple crown dim sum @ chicago.
doesnt even need sweetener.
If i want something super decadent I will add a few rose buds to steep and add very sweet cream/sugar.

Always a calming cup of tea with a subtle flavor. I love the way this tea smells while brewing. Reliable and worth the money.

Mild jasmine flavor, not overwhelming. I enjoyed this and think it would make a good companion to long, cold afternoons

Great scent, though can be very bitter without sugar.

The perfect jasmine tea! A quick rinse before brewing and any bitterness is gone.

The best smelling green tea ever, by far. I tend to brew my greens slightly strong, and even then, it didn't get bitter at all. Absolutely amazing tea.

I have another source for this type of tea leaf but it is in Boulder, CO...(Dushabe Tea House) no traveling at present. This one is Also now added to my Favorites, thank you.

This tea is rather mild, especially in the jasmine flavor, it would be a great tea for someone looking to get into jasmine tea, not overpowering. Just too weak in my preferences.

First things first, the smell. The Jasmine scent was like, open up a bottle of vanilla extract levels of intense, so I was already excited to try it. And when I did try it, whoa was it good. A top notch jasmine tea, but then again, I'm a sucker for jasmine. Lightly sweet, with a delicate yet powerful flavor, this comes close to rivaling jasmine pearls.

I often think the jasmine flavor in jasmine teas is a little overpowering, but this is very well-balanced.

I Love this tea! It is one of my favorite. The perfect amount of Jasmine.

Love this tea! Great flavor and smells amazing definitely recommend!

Just a good way to start the morning. Easy to drink.

This is probably my favorite green tea. It has a great earthy flavor, and I'll drink it any time of the day. I have reordered this one several times.

Makes a nice cup of tea, good jasmine flavor. I enjoyed this with a touch of honey.

This is a nice introduction to jasmine teas, as it does have a pretty strong floral scent and taste without being overwhelmingly perfumey. It has a light toasty base that has a very subtle sweetness. I'm not usually a fan of very floral teas, but this one is enjoyable as a light afternoon tea when I feel like switching it up.

I'm always concerned when buying jasmine teas, because so many are like drinking perfume, but this one was very good. The jasmine flavor is present, but not overpowering.

My new favorite Jasmine tea! This is the more floral cup. Need to watch the steeping time so it doesn t get too strong and become bitter.
