Since 1854 Hédiard has been a well-known name in Paris, for years the shop has been frequented by many cosmopolitan and noteworthy figures. The flagship store and restaurant are located on Place de Madeleine and the company has grown to oversee distribution to select shops in France and on four continents.

Hediard's tea blends use the whole tea leaf to minimize the powdery residue sometimes left behind from crushed leaves. The China Jasmine Tea uses 97% Chinese green tea with 3% jasmine flowers. Hediard China Jasmine Tea is traditionally served hot without milk.

Each tin contains approximately 4.4 ounces net weight of Hediard China Jasmine (Thé au Jasmin) Loose Leaf Tea from France.
