I can't guess this truth.
All companies always want to mark their trade -marks on products. So,
you can understand where the tea was made from the company name.
When you see the tea-box with label Jasmine Tea, you should know that
it is' made from Jasmine flower with tea, exactly, not from Lotus at
all.

OK, so you have answered a very important question: It is not the custom in
Viet Nam to use the phrase "jasmine tea" to mean that the natural tea has a
flowery aroma and taste; you use it to mean precisely that it contains
jasmine flower or the essence of jasmine flower. Thanks for clarifying that.
We were looking for some explanation for the labels beyond just sloppy
labeling.
