Scope
Main Technical Content: 3.1 Jianwei Jasmine Tea is made from fresh leaves of buds and one bud with one leaf, or one bud with two leaves, picked from tea trees in the southwestern Sichuan region. It undergoes processes such as withering, shaping, drying, and refining to become a green tea blank. It is then scented with fresh Jianwei jasmine flowers (including a base of white jasmine flowers) and processed through special techniques like "flower selection and frying" to create a jasmine tea with a unique "ripe aroma" and a high content of jasmine petals. 3.2 Special Jianwei Jasmine Tea is made from single buds or one bud with one leaf, processed into curled, flat, needle-shaped, bead-shaped, or other special shapes, and scented with fresh Jianwei jasmine flowers. 3.3 Dried Jianwei Jasmine Tea is made by removing the green flower stalks of jasmine flowers and mixing them with the tea blank. It features a yellow-white color and a distinctive fried flower aroma. 4.
