These are good, but make sure not to brew too long!
Perfumy hand-rolled tea from Fuding, in Fujian, China. Each pearl is just one leaf and a bud. When added to hot water, the pearls majestically unfurl, releasing a delicate scent and flavor. Sweet and almost sugary.

absolutely delightful tea! a lot of jasmine teas I've tried have ended up tasting like perfume water but not this one! the jasmine is delicious while never overwhelming.
I love the smell and taste of this tea! I also brew it 3 times before throwing it out and it's delicious every time! Highly recommend!!
This was very soft and light and a little on the sweet side.
I've had about 5-6 different brands of Jasmine Pearls since discovering it. This tea had just the right amount of jasmine and was impeccably balanced. I also re-steep a brew up to 3 times. I chose to follow my previous brewing instructions for another brand and only had the water heated to 175° F.
My favorite tea EVER. I have to have this on hand at all times. I steep the first time for only a minute or two, until the little balls start to loosen up.
We're very pleased with the Jasmine Phoenix Pearls. Like others, we loved the Teavana Jasmine Dragon Phoenix Pearls, and were looking for something similar now that Starbucks has shuttered the Teavana stores & no longer carries JDPP.
These Jasmine Phoenix Pearls are as wonderful as we had hoped! We like to do a 2nd steeping, and that has worked out well for us, too.
Very pleased to have our family favorite again.
Shipped really quickly in a safe bag without all of the Teavana-style upselling, too. I loved getting the 7-day trial of CommuniTEA, too. We had a lot of fun with that!
I have been looking for a good jasmine tea for 5 years and this tea is amazing!!! It is so light and has a very pleasant aroma. It pairs really well with orange and other citrus flavors! So excited to use this more
Soooo fragrant. I love it so much, it’s very relaxing despite being a green tea. I’ve re-steeped it 5 times and it still smells and tastes lovely
I really enjoyed this tea and watching the pearls open up was interesting.
My favorite green tea so far. Has all the green tea flavor you expect with no bitterness at all.
Very fragrant jasmine tea, great flavor, and it's somewhat forgiving if you over steep
I love Jasmine tea and missed the pearls from Teavana. These are a great substitute.
Nice jasmine flavor not overly so, coupled with a nice green tea flavor
Lovely floral scent and taste. Calming, you feel your tension unfold like the pearls in hot water.
What smell and taste... Great alone or with a pinch of honey, I recently mixed this with lemon verbena and they make for quite the combination.
Giving it 3 stars would be 1 but I liked the way the pearls opened up in a clear glass tea cup, it smells and tastes like old candles to me. Its more of an acquired taste, not a big fan no one in my family enjoyed it very much.
This is another great tea. I typically can drink this on it's own but have been using it in a blend for kombucha.
My number one go to pick me up! Expensive but you can reuse the leaves a couple of times.
This has become my favorite green tea. I m not a big fan of the earthy, grassy flavor of a lot of green teas and the sweeter teas tend to steep out to be bitter. I have never had that experience with this tea and I absolutely love the floral jasmine flavor. Some may cringe at the thought of blending such a great stand alone tea, but I often mix it with another signle flavored white or green tea with some great results.
Jasmine pearls are my favorite, the pearls have a floral scent and taste, the finish is smooth and not overwhelming. You can’t go wrong with this tea.
Amazing tea, such a delicate and delicious flavor and aroma. Can really see the craftsmanship that went into making this.
I love this tea, it's got a rich flavor, but not too much of an earthy one like a lot of green teas, it's just a very pleasing almost sweet taste.
Very calm and relaxing in the afternoon. I like the scent.
A wonderful jasmine tea. I like a light tea and only need a teaspoon of pearls to make two quarts of a wonderful, light jasmine scented tea.
I mostly use herbal teas for health purposes, but decided to try this one since I have always had a fondness for jasmine teas. I absolutely love that first hit of jasmine smell before I take the first sip. I will say, I will not use the recommended teaspoon serving for this tea as it was overpowering for me. I really do love the way the leaves unfurl after steeping! Will definitely order gain.
smells and tastes amazing. exactly what a jasmine green tea lover wants.
A staple in my pantry, the day I go without some jasmine is the day the sun no longer rises. Aromatic and relaxing, just as it should be.
This is the same high quality Jasmine Pearls that they sell elsewhere but the price is much more reasonable.
Love this tea! So aromatic and tastes amazing. Highly recommend
I think that it is a personal preference. It was so flowery and I couldn t even stand the smell. But the young lady that lives with us and my oldest daughter just loved it.
I use a lower temperature and shorter brewing time for the delicate flavor to be at its best.
Just as amazing as the teavana version I was introduced to long ago. Rebrews well.
Good aromatic taste, not a Jasmine sipping person.
Really floral and sweet tea. Great for a nice afternoon cup.
This is my one absolute essential tea that I keep in stock. It's perfect when I am stressed out and want a pick me up. It's both refreshing and calming with a wonderful flavor that changes with length of steeping time without getting bitter unless you've steeped it a ridiculous number of minutes. I usually drink mine by leaving them in as I drink so I get to enjoy all the different flavors!
Absolutely my favorite jasmine green. I cannot recommend this enough. The jasmine is not subtle; you will definitely taste it and get a lovely round nose full with every sip. However, it's not overwhelming either. It steeps well a second time for a lighter complex if that's your thing.
This is possibly one of my most favorite teas that I have had. Very soft and floral.
LOVE this tea! I personally do not like it to be too strong so I add just half a teaspoon per one cup and it is the perfect ratio!
Prefer the white pearls. Didn't realize this was green tea when I ordered. However it's pretty good for a green tea.
Taste good and you can smell jasmine. It’s the best quality jasmine tea.
It's fun to watch the pearls unfurl when the tea steeps, and it tastes great!
Best Jasmine Pearls I ve ever had. Smooth and delicious.
Appearance: Pale green-tan.
Aroma: Like fresh jasmine flowers still on the vine. No change on second steeping.
Taste: Light mix of sweetness and astringency on the tip of the tongue turning to heavy jasmine on the swallow, some grass just barely peeking through. Jasmine continues to linger in the aftertaste. No change on second steeping.
Mouthfeel: Light-medium bodied. Slightly dry in the aftertaste.
Overall: When I first started the cup I was somewhat disappointed with the lack of depth with the tea but as I continued to drink it grew on me. The jasmine flavor is really crisp, not at all perfume like as some have implied, try an artificially flavored version and it will be night and day. I do wish the tea itself was able to shine through more but it is a refreshing cup, especially in some warmer weather.
These sre amazing. Approx 4 per cup makes an amazing cup of fragrant, bold tea. Enough left in the leaves for a resteeping too.
I was looking for a classic standby Jasmine pearl tea; Adagio's is affordable, so I added some to my last order. It was surprisingly flavorful & more floral than I was anticipating at this price point, and almost feels like a tea that should be saved for special occasions.
This tea honestly is a whole journey. Not only is there immense pleasure from the heavenly taste, you also enjoy the strong, aromatic scent that is given off from just opening the bag and a different aroma while brewing. This tea is for you if you like light, almost airy-like, perfumy flavors.
Reminds me of the many meals I shared with friends in Oakland Chinatown.
Wow! I can’t imagine someone being disappointed with this tea. Very light, refreshing, aromatic and delicious. Easy to drink and so smooth. I generally stick to oolongs and sencha greens, but this may be my new favorite.
Jasmine pearls are one of my favorite green teas. They're floral and smooth and a relaxing treat
