Allegra Jasmine Burst was created as a tribute to the great cultural awakening of the Song Dynasty in China. It is believed that jasmine tea was first introduced during the great cultural flowering of the Song Dynasty. One man, perhaps while sitting under a sweetly smelling jasmine tree, came up with the idea of scenting tea with the blossoms.
Artfully hand-tied inside a shell of fresh white tips, each flowering tea opens to reveal fresh, beautiful jasmine blossoms. The casing represents the potential of the Chinese people during the Song Dynasty, while the blossoms represent the cultural power unlocked during the Dynasty.
Allegra Jasmine Burst delivers an intensely delicate infusion that fills the mouth with a bright jasmine character, and pale, grassy notes with a hint of sweet light honey. This cup of China's finest makes a wonderful sipping tea.
