How is loose tea made?
According to legend, people first tried to knit tea many centuries ago. And the tea master did it in the name of love. The story goes that the poor young man wanted to conquer the heart of a beauty and collected the best tea leaves for her, forming a "pearl" from them using threads.
The bound tea can be brewed for more than ten minutes; such an exposure will not spoil the taste and smell of the infusion.
Dissolving tea is made by hand, and the manufacture of the composition requires special skill. Each resulting product can be compared to a work of art. The most common types of tea are green bound tea or red. There is a division of opening teas into pure ones and those that contain various additives.

But fragrant jasmine is designed to relieve insomnia, headaches and fatigue. So, the blossoming tea brings not only pleasure, but also healing to the body.

And in order to achieve the most intense taste and aroma, you need to infuse the tea bouquet for at least ten minutes. And only then it can be poured into cups.
