Pleasure to meet all of you. My name is Angie and I've always loved tea
Although, I have only gotten super obsessed with it this past couple of years, and this is largely in part due to my involvement in a tea club at my university. Furthermore, I am planning to do a presentation over Jasmine, but I'm honestly finding it a little bit difficult to find consistent sources online to conduct proper research- this may be one of the reasons I am here. Does anyone have any recommendations?
I totally relate — once the tea obsession sets in, there’s no going back! A university tea club sounds like such a fun way to deepen that passion.
For your Jasmine tea presentation, you might want to check out:
"The Story of Tea" by Mary Lou Heiss & Robert Heiss – it covers history, cultivation, and tasting notes, and has solid info on scented teas like Jasmine.
Teavivre and Rishi Tea's blogs – they sometimes post detailed background info about their teas, including jasmine processing methods.
PubMed or Google Scholar – if you’re going more academic, searching “jasmine green tea” + health benefits or “scenting process in Chinese tea” can bring up good sources.
Let us know how your presentation goes. I’d love to hear what angle you take!
