Selim Hill Jade Delight Green loose leaf Tea Available in 100g pouches & tins

Premium Whole Leaf Green Tea in Protective 100g Packaging

Selim Hill Jade Delight Green loose leaf Tea delivers an authentic whole leaf tea experience with visibly intact leaves that unfurl gracefully during steeping, releasing a characteristic jade-green liquor with delicate vegetal notes. The tea is offered in two practical 100g formats: resealable pouches for everyday convenience and protective tins that shield the leaves from light and moisture degradation. In practice, users find that the whole leaf structure produces a cleaner, more nuanced flavor than broken-grade teas, with optimal results achieved at 75-80°C water temperature for 2-3 minutes. The leaves maintain their structural integrity through multiple infusions, delivering consistent color and taste across successive steeps.

Expertly Sourced Tea with Traditional Processing Standards

This premium green tea loose leaf 100g selection adheres to traditional pan-firing or steaming methods that halt oxidation while preserving the natural polyphenol content characteristic of quality green teas. The jade designation reflects both the visual appearance of the steeped tea and the careful cultivar selection that produces leaves with higher chlorophyll retention and lower astringency profiles. Selim Hill sources teas following established grading standards for whole leaf integrity, with minimal stem or fannings content that would compromise brewing clarity. The 100-gram packaging quantity represents approximately 50-60 servings based on standard 2-gram brewing portions, offering exceptional value for regular tea drinkers seeking consistent quality.
