Saicho Jasmine — The Presentation

Given, not just poured.

The standard Saicho Jasmine, in Saicho's illustrated presentation box — the bottle's own artwork rendered larger, designed to arrive on the table as much as in the glass. In this form, the bottle becomes the offering: brought to a dinner, sent to a host, given to mark the season.

Inside is the same Saicho Jasmine — green tea from Fujian Province, hand-layered with fresh jasmine blossoms over several nights, then cold-brewed and finished with a fine carbonation. For the full description and Tea Reading™, see Saicho Jasmine.

The Occasion

Sent to the host of a dinner, in place of the wine bottle. Given as a thank-you to anyone whose week needed the gesture. Brought to a table where someone is not drinking that night, so the moment of pour still belongs to them. Wrapped for spring birthdays, anniversaries, just-because afternoons.
