What is Jasmine Tea?

Jasmine is a type of flowering plant that is native to tropical and subtropical regions of the Old World (primarily in Asia). It is a member of the olive family and is known for its delicate and fragrant flowers, which are often used to produce perfumes and essential oils. Jasmine plants are vines or shrubs that can grow to be quite large, with dark glossy leaves and small white or yellow flowers. The flowers of the jasmine plant are highly prized for their sweet, exotic scent and are often used in aromatherapy and traditional medicine. There are many different species of jasmine, each with its own unique characteristics and uses. Jasmine is also a popular choice for use in gardens and landscaping, as it is relatively easy to grow and adds a touch of elegance and fragrance to any outdoor space.

Jasmine tea is a type of tea that is made from green tea leaves scented with the aroma of jasmine flowers. It is a popular beverage in many parts of Asia, particularly in China, where it has a long and storied history.

Jasmine tea is believed to have originated in the Fujian province of China during the Song Dynasty (960-1279), when tea merchants began adding jasmine flowers to their teas in order to improve the flavor and aroma. The tea quickly became popular and began to spread throughout China and beyond. Today, jasmine tea is enjoyed in many parts of Asia and around the world, and is considered to be a symbol of culture and tradition in China.

In the production of jasmine tea, green tea leaves are mixed with jasmine flowers and left to soak in the flowers' fragrance for several hours or days. The tea is then dried and the jasmine flowers are removed, leaving a delicate and aromatic tea. Jasmine tea is known for its refreshing and floral flavor, and is often enjoyed as a way to relax and unwind. It is also believed to have a number of health benefits, including aiding in digestion and helping to reduce stress and anxiety.

How to Choose the Best Scented Candle

Choosing the best scented candles can be a fun process, but here are a few tips to help you find your perfect match:
1. Consider the Mood: What kind of atmosphere are you aiming to create? If you want a relaxing environment, go for soothing fragrances like Jasmine Tea, which is light and delicate like a jasmine perfume. For an energizing vibe, try something vibrant like our White Peach candle scent or our Drip Coffee, modeled after Vietnamese coffee.
2. Match with the Season: Candle scents can complement the seasons beautifully. Light a lychee candle smells just like lychee jelly in the summer, or enjoy the cozy aroma of Red Bean and moon cake in the fall.
3. Test the Fragrance: If you can, sample the scent before purchasing. This ensures the candle with scent is just right for your space and preferences. Check out our Stockists page to see if you have any stores that carry EMME nyc close by!

How to Care for Your EMME nyc Candle

To get the most out of your scented candles, proper care is key. Here’s how to ensure a clean, long-lasting burn:

1. Trim the Wick
Always trim the wick to about 1/4 inch before lighting. This prevents excessive soot and helps your candle burn evenly. A wick that’s too long can cause it to burn too quickly or unevenly.
2. Burn the Candle Properly
On the first burn, let the candle burn until the wax pool reaches the edges of the container. This prevents tunneling and ensures an even burn throughout the candle’s life. Try not to burn your scented candle for more than 4 hours at a time to avoid overheating.
3. Avoid Drafts
Keep away from drafts, vents, and open windows. Drafts can lead to uneven burning and excessive soot. A steady flame is crucial for a slow, even burn.
4. Store Properly
Store your scented candles in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight. This helps preserve the quality of the fragrance and prevents the wax from melting prematurely.

Common Candle Issues and How to Fix Them

1. Candle Tunneling
Candle tunneling happens when the wax burns down the center, leaving unmelted wax around the edges. To fix this, make sure you burn the candle long enough on the first use to create a full wax pool. Regular wick trimming also helps prevent tunneling.
2. Soot and Smoke
If you notice soot or smoke, it might be due to a wick that’s too long or a draft. Trim the wick and ensure your candle is placed in a draft-free area to reduce soot and smoke.
3. Uneven Burning
Uneven burning can occur if the candle is on an uneven surface or exposed to drafts. Ensure the candle is on a flat, stable surface and free from drafts for an even burn.
