Harvested in autumn, the Tie Guan Yin oolong is carefully harvested, and fresh osmanthus blossoms, gathered at dawn when their fragrance is at its peak, are layered over the tea in traditional bamboo baskets. Over 48 hours, the blossoms are replaced multiple times, allowing the tea to naturally absorb their golden aroma, creating a depth and complexity. Once perfectly scented, the tea is cold-brewed for 24 hours using English spring water to preserve its delicate aromatics and floral character. A gentle sparkle is added to create Saicho’s signature effervescent finish — a modern expression of an ancient Chinese tradition and a celebration of tea at its finest.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cspan style=\"text-decoration: underline;\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eTASTING NOTES\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"rte\" style=\"text-align: left;\"\u003e\n\u003cmeta charset=\"utf-8\"\u003e \u003cspan\u003eSaicho Osmanthus’s delicate floral and stone fruit notes make it a wonderfully versatile pairing—its freshness lifts light seafood dishes like scallops, sashimi or ceviche, while its gentle sweetness complements fruit-based desserts such as apricot tart, poached pear or peach cobbler, especially when kept light and elegant\u003c\/span\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"rte\" style=\"text-align: left;\"\u003e\n\u003cspan\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"rte\" style=\"text-align: left;\"\u003e\n\u003cp style=\"text-align: left;\"\u003e\u003cspan style=\"text-decoration: underline;\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eINGREDIENTS\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e \u003cbr\u003eCold Brewed Osmanthus Tea (93%), White Grape Juice From Concentrate, Acid (Citric Acid), Vitamin C, Carbon Dioxide.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan style=\"text-decoration: underline;\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eNutritional data per 100mL\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ctable width=\"100%\"\u003e\n\u003ctbody\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e Energy\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e92kJ\/22kcal\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eFat\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e0.1g\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eof which saturates\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e\u0026lt;0.1g\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eCarbohydrates\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e4.6g\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eof which Sugars\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e4.6g\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eProtein\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e0.2g\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eSalt\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e\u0026lt;0.1g\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eCaffeine\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e14 mg\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003c\/tbody\u003e\n\u003c\/table\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cimg height=\"32\" width=\"32\" alt=\"\" src=\"https:\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0380\/7559\/6844\/files\/drink-cocktail-svgrepo-com_32x32.svg?v=1682034214\"\u003eTry out our \u003cstrong\u003e\u003ca href=\"https:\/\/sobrhaven.ca\/blogs\/recipes\/tagged\/sparkling-jasmine\"\u003eCocktail Recommendations\u003c\/a\u003e\u003c\/strong\u003e With this Tea.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003eSaicho Jasmine Origins\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cmeta charset=\"utf-8\"\u003e\u003cspan\u003eThis green tea is grown in the mountains of Fuding in Fujian province, China at an altitude of approximately 500m.
