Ingredients: Carefully Selected Jasmine, Encountering High-quality Ingredients
The production of Dianyuan Jasmine Sauce is extremely strict in the selection of raw materials. The main ingredient, jasmine flowers, are all sourced from the flower fields with a superior ecological environment in local Yunnan. Yunnan's warm and humid climate, abundant sunlight, and fertile soil have nurtured jasmine flowers that are full, pure white, and have a rich and pure floral fragrance. Flower farmers usually pick the jasmine flowers in the early morning when they are just in full bloom and have the strongest aroma to ensure the top quality of the flowers. In addition to high-quality jasmine flowers, naturally pure honey is also used. Honey not only adds a rich sweetness to the jasmine sauce but also blends with the fragrance of the jasmine flowers, making the taste of the jasmine sauce richer and more layered.
Production Process: Combining Tradition and Innovation, Locking in the Natural Fragrance
The production process of Dianyuan Jasmine Sauce skillfully combines traditional craftsmanship with modern innovation. First, the picked jasmine flowers go through careful screening and washing to remove impurities and remaining flowers, ensuring the purity of the raw materials. Subsequently, the processed jasmine flowers are sun-dried to appropriately remove some of the moisture and concentrate the floral fragrance. Then, according to a strict ratio, the jasmine flowers are fully mixed with honey. During this process, the staff will stir gently so that each jasmine flower can be evenly coated with honey, promoting the integration of the floral and honey scents. After that, the mixed raw materials are put into a special container for low-temperature fermentation. Low-temperature fermentation can preserve the aroma and nutrients of the jasmine flowers to the greatest extent. At the same time, under the catalysis of time, the richness of the honey and the fragrance of the jasmine flowers slowly blend and sublimate, forming the unique flavor of Dianyuan Jasmine Sauce.
