    Jesse’s Tea Journey Episode 2
    Black Jasmine
    Today on my tea journey, I head to the Beijing Maliandao tea market! I show a bit of one of the giant markets and also my friend Wu Kai’s shop, where we enjoyed a very special black jasmine Liubao tea!
    Liubao is a type of “dark tea” - what we in the West call black tea, the chinese call red tea, and what the chinese call red tea is very rarely sold in America. The technical name is “dark tea” but because I use the chinese name red tea I will also use the chinese name “black tea” to refer to the Liubao tea.
    This Liubao is warm and smooth and dark and funky but it’s real specialty is the jasmine scenting process which Wu Kai shares in this video.
    I cannot wait to get this stuff to you guys, it will be featured in my summer subscription box, so keep an eye out, or subscribe now and pre-reserve your bag!
    As always let me know how you like this series. I spend a lot of time on them for a very small amount of views on CZcams but as long as I know people are really enjoying them I will keep making them!

    Born and raised in Oakland I didn’t understand why I enjoy seeing this. Maybe after so many years of seeing pain and violence- tea supplies a safe space

    Jesse, I found you on Instagram. You've sparked an interest in tea for me. Thank you very much for this awesome content. Please don't stop uploading consistently for us as I now have watched all your stuff. Really look forward to your videos. A good day to you, ciao.

    Wow, what an amazing place! I love how excited your friend is about sharing Chinese tea culture. You can clearly see his passion in the way he talks about tea. It was interesting what he said about the water, I have soft water here in Melbourne Australia so it has less minerals and I had been thinking about buying mineral water for my tea experiments. Now I'm rethinking that. I can't wait to see the tea pet shop, I want a tea pet of a traditional dog or lion I can't remember the exact name of the mythical creature.

    He has made a point where minerals in water would clash with the soluable material in the tea during extraction but I come from the coffee world. In coffee, usually people would go for an interesting balance in minerals in the water, which will improve extract certain flavors out of coffees while masking other certain flavors. Think of it as something like an EQ.
    So I‘d be very interested in having an indepth look into that kind of topic and how everyone in the tea world sees it

    I had NO IDEA you can make Jasmine tea with teas other than green teas. In fact, in my head I've always labeled Jasmine tea as a green tea and now I feel immensely dumb ahah

    • @jessesteahouse
      @jessesteahouse  Před 8 měsíci +6

      No need to feel dumb about that - making jasmine with anything other than green is unusual even here. Very glad to feature this tea - we are restocking it :)

    Yaaaayyyy!!! Thank you!!
    Those tea markets look insane!
    I love how she described the taste of the tea and how it moves through the head and into the body.
    The lotus tea pet!
    His wooden grab-y tongs!
    Is that a Lu Yu statue on the shelf? I’ve read they’re common in tea shops.
    Thank you for bringing us along and putting so much effort into making the long-form videos. I imagine that like a good pu’erh, their value will increase with time.

      @toomnLP Před 7 měsíci

      Depends on where you live. The water in my hometown tastes really hard, like calcium. Where I now live, only 400 km away, the water tastes like volvic, completly neutral and nice for tea. Im not american but im assuming that this isnt different in the US. I bet that Backcountry Oregon Tap Water must be pretty nice for tea, NYC water not so much.
