Jasmine Snow Dance Tea (Mo Li Piao Xue)
Where Blossoms Fall Like Winter's First Frost
Origin & Craft
Crafted in Sichuan's Pengzhou region—China's "Jasmine Capital"—this ethereal tea revives a Song Dynasty (960-1279) technique documented in Treatise on Tea (《大观茶论》):
· Triple Calendar Sync :
�� Jasmine: Harvested during 大暑 (Great Heat) solar term at 3 AM
�� Tea: Mengding Mountain green plucked before 谷雨 (Grain Rain)
️ Snow: Winter-harvested pear blossoms from Tibetan highlands
· Seven-Scenting Alchemy : Each tea bud undergoes 7 nights of layering with fresh petals, then manually separated to retain "snowflake" remnants
Visual Haiku
· Dry Leaves : Emerald spirals dusted with crystallized petals resembling frosted pine needles
· Brewing Ballet : 90°C water triggers "snowstorm" spectacle—white jasmine petals pirouette downward while pear blossoms ascend
· Spent Leaves : Jade-green buds unfurl as origami cranes holding petal "wings"
Aroma Sonata
A layered fragrance profile certified by IFRA:
· Top Notes : Honeysuckle dew, crushed coriander seeds
· Heart Notes : Night-blooming jasmine absolute, poached Bosc pear
· Base Notes : Himalayan rock moss, antique sandalwood chest
