Perlas de Jazmín

The hand-rolled pearls unfurl into these big whole leaves after steeping, and the jasmine scent is genuinely floral instead of perfumey. Two pearls were enough for a full mug, so the tin is lasting longer than I figured.

I was skeptical about spending this much on tea, but the jasmine flavor here is so much sweeter and more natural than the perfumey bags I used to buy. Watching the pearls slowly open in my glass teapot has become my favorite part of the morning.

The little hand-rolled pearls unfurl slowly in my glass teapot and the jasmine scent fills the whole kitchen before I even take a sip. Sweet and floral without any bitterness, even when I forget it and let it steep a minute too long.
