    The Sunflower tea I buy is dark green and has real jasmine flowers in it. It is delicious and the taste of jasmine is strong. Actually, when you pour the tea, one can see on 6:48 that they have exactly the same color, although later you show two cups with differently colored tea.

    No offense, but this is an unfair comparison. You brewed the tea from the tea shop by 5-10 minutes meanwhile the tea from the grocery store for only 5 minutes. There others things taht weren’t fair such as leaving the tea leaves in the cup meanwhile the other tea had a better filter with no extra tea leaves. I think when doing comparisons we should keep things on the same playing field and with the same rules.

    The biggest problem is that the Sunflower brand is well priced compared to other jasmine teas. Example here in Europe: Sunflower tea 9 euros for 225 gram. Other "quality" jasmin tea 10.95 for 75 gram. Thats almost four times as expensive. Sunflower is amazing

      @HoosGottheTea Рік тому

      Oolong is really just a style but the tea itself is tea leaves. Antioxidants found in all tea improve health and caffeine plus L-theanine would decrease crashing energy and provide longer satiety. In my opinion, all are good options for overall improvement in health.

    Jasmine tea had its origins in eastern and northeast India in ancient India history. Ref: en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Jasmine_tea Since China and USA want everything to be in their name, it’s now their propriety 😂😂. But it’s early origins and locale is still in northeast and eastern India. Thanks to Indian government efforts, now we are able to revive our own Jasmine tea production that was once practiced till 5th century AD but gradually died with the advent of Buddhism and religious infighting in early ancient India. Right now pure and high quality Jasmine tea is being cultivated in plains of Darjeeling and Sikkim with special focus on flavor and scent.

    That seems like a lovely tea. I prefer Gyokuro for a green tea, and I brew it in an unconventional way. It has L-theanine, which is supposed to alter the effect of the caffeine from being a nervous energy to being a focused energy. That aside, I found that I love the sweet lingering aftertaste, and deep green color, almost as though it were made green lawn clippings. 😂 I recommend it, when purchased as fresh as possible from its point of origin, and brewed at a very low temperature. We seem to be making the same choices, as I have also tried the pea flower tea, and the barley tea before seeing those videos here.

    • @HoosGottheTea
      @HoosGottheTea 2 роки тому

      Good choices! "Green lawn clippings" is a new comparison for me lol yes, l-theanine is known to have lots of benefits including alleviating some of the more known side effects of obtaining caffeine from sources like coffee (ie. rebound headaches). I'm glad youve tried pea flower tea as well, its such a pleasant aesthetic flower to work with.
