SWEET AND MELLOW SCENT OF JASMINE TEA IN MAE HONG SON

SWEET AND MELLOW SCENT OF JASMINE TEA IN MAE HONG SON

Our Jasmine Infusion Collection sets its journey to a hideaway tea plantation on mountaintop in Mae Hong Son province, located in the northern border that separates Thailand from Burma. Mae Hong Son is known as “The City of Three Mists” from the fact that it has dewy mist in the winter, forest fire mist in the summer and rainy mist in the rainy season.

The inspired sensory is the reminiscence of a small village nestled up at the top of Mae Hong Son province called “Mae Aw” which is famous for its breathtaking views and tea cultivation. The villagers are mainly refugees fleeing from southern China during the regime change, who had drifted in northern parts of Thailand and previously made a living by growing opium for drug trade.

With the royal patronage of His Majesty King Bhumipol Adulyadej, they were given a Thai citizenship and a beautiful land to settle for life and also introduced means of support to improve their standards of living. Instead of opium they began to cultivate high quality tea varieties such as Oolong, which is their long-rooted wisdom passed down from China. A grateful love and loyalty of the villagers for the king can be primarily seen from the Thai king portraits hung in their traditional clay houses.  “Mae Aw” today is a popular tourist destination for both Thais and Foreigners to experience the combination of Thai-Yunnan culture and its beautiful Tea plantations.

We take you away from the hectic city life to the mountainous hideaway of Mae Hong Son.  Jasmine Infusion Collection is created from the blend of Oolong Tea and Jasmine sensory, reminiscence sipping Jasmine tea looking over the verdant tea plantations. Discover our heartwarming scents collection that will immerse your senses into the charm of northern Thailand.  Come away with us!
