Connoisseur Collection

Discover an elevated tea ritual crafted for moments of calm, clarity, and sensory wonder. The Connoisseur Collection brings together two of Monista’s most exquisite loose-leaf selections from Fujian Province, China, where tea is shaped by misty mountains, early spring harvests, and centuries-old infusion artistry.

Jasmine Pearls are hand-rolled from tender green tea buds scented naturally with fresh jasmine blossoms through an ancient layering technique. Petals are placed in gentle succession among the tea leaves, where their heady perfume is slowly absorbed—never sprayed, never rushed. The result is a tea that unfurls like a blooming secret: floral, aromatic, and softly sweet with pure jasmine nectar.

Silver Needles (Bai Hao Yin Zhen) is one of China’s most treasured white teas. Grown high in the Wuyi and surrounding Fujian mountains at 800–1200 meters, it is harvested for only a fleeting window in late March, capturing the first buds of early spring. Its liquor pours a luminous ivory-gold, carrying floral notes of honeysuckle, wild orchid, and early forest bloom, with a clean, elegant finish that lingers like fresh mountain air.
