This process needs to be repeated several times, often for dozens of hours, in order to make the fragrance and aroma of tea perfectly combined. The tea gardens in Hengxian County are mostly distributed on the mountainside of sanjiang town, which are integrated with the beauty of natural landscape, so the taste of tea is pure and sweet, while the fragrance of jasmine is more rich and charming.
