June Jasmine is named for Jestha, the Nepali month of June, when jasmine blossoms come into full bloom across the hills. It starts with a smooth, high-altitude whole-leaf green tea from Ilam, Nepal, which we blend in the USA with real jasmine blossoms and dried orange peel. The result is a pale gold cup layered with dried jasmine, citron, and wildflower honey, opening into gardenia and honeysuckle aromatics. Unlike heavily perfumed jasmine teas, it stays floral and fragrant with no soapy aftertaste.

A Nepali Green Tea, Scented with Real Jasmine
June Jasmine starts with a smooth, high-altitude whole-leaf green tea grown in the Ilam district of eastern Nepal, the same Himalayan range as Darjeeling. We hand-blend that single-origin Nepali leaf in the USA with real jasmine blossoms and dried orange peel, so the aroma comes from real flowers and citrus rather than synthetic flavoring. The result is a floral green tea that stays clean and smooth, a favorite for drinkers searching for jasmine green tea that is fragrant but never soapy.

Scented with Real Jasmine, Never Soapy
Many jasmine teas taste perfumed or soapy because they rely on heavy artificial flavoring. June Jasmine takes the traditional route: a quality Nepali green tea base is blended with real jasmine blossoms and dried orange peel. Brewed cooler and shorter, it delivers true floral aroma with a clean finish, the way jasmine green tea is meant to taste. For more on the flavor, see our guide on what jasmine tea tastes like.

How to Brew June Jasmine Green Tea
- Heat the water: Heat fresh, filtered water to 160 to 175°F, just below a simmer. Boiling water can make green tea bitter.
- Measure the leaf: Use 1 teaspoon (2 to 3 grams) per 8 oz cup.
- Steep: Steep 1 to 2 minutes for a smooth, floral cup.
- Re-steep: Re-steep the same leaves 2 to 3 times, adding 15 to 30 seconds each time, to draw out fresh jasmine and citrus notes.
Caffeine in June Jasmine Green Tea
An 8 oz cup of June Jasmine contains roughly 25 to 40 mg of caffeine, because it is a green tea at its base. The jasmine blossoms and orange peel add aroma, not caffeine. That is about a third of the caffeine in an 8 oz cup of coffee, paired with the amino acid L-theanine for calm, focused energy. For the full breakdown, read our guide on whether jasmine tea has caffeine.
