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 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
Absolutely incredible. An amazing tea with a very robust flavor.
This tea blend is really nice. It's the perfect blend of floral flavors but not too over powering
I mix half and half with Jasmine Yin Hao for a great tea!
Love this tea! I mix a little with the Earl Grey/Lavender as my daily brew!
These are much higher quality than I thought they would be!
My husband and I have been searching for the “perfect “ green tea. Now I think we’ve found it. Excellent hot or cold
I love how the smell of jasmine tea, but I sometimes feel like I have to add sugar to it. I didn't have to that with these. The pearls are pretty and slowly fall apart in the cup. A nice jasmine with a good flavor.
Amazing quality, better than the Teavanna jasmine pearls I used to get. This is one of my favorite teas, though the price makes me hesitant to drink it all the time.
One sniff, and you know this is going to be an amazing cup of tea. Absolutely splendid. Though I might be biased because Jasmine is my favorite type of tea.
Fragrant and relaxing green tea. This tea is perfect for aftenoon with a little sugar in the raw or Rooibos Tropics blended.
Another staple in our tea cabinet!!! We can’t go without this one
This is some of the best green tea I've ever had. A little pricey, but well worth it in my opinion.
I love the flavor and aroma of these. I can get 4 cups of tea from a heaping teaspoon of pearls. This is my favorite tea pearls from Adagio or any other seller.
Always wonderful! I've bought this before from Adagio and have always been happy with the quality of this tea. I prefer very brief steeping in hot but not boiling water for the first but will move up to longer steeping in boiling water for later brews. I prefer this weak and stretched out over multiple brews, seems to help keep the fragrance and taste light and not bitter.
Probably my favorite green tea on here. Best to buy in bulk
This is my husband's favorite. He has tried other jasmine teas and this one is so superior to others, really can taste the jasmine in this!
This is excellent tasting green tea. It's florally but not too perfumed. I use about 18 pearls for a large cup of tea. I'll seep it twice sometimes and the second cup turns out good.
A really nice jasmine tea, but a little more on the mild side. I prefer a punchier jasmine flavor, so I couldn't quite give this one 5 stars. Very good if you're looking for a 'starter' jasmine tea, in my opinion.
This used to be my favorite tea. It was delightful and I enjoyed it on a daily basis. My recent batch that arrived on April 1, 2020 has absolutely no jasmine flavor and is simply very unremarkable. Passable as an average green tea. I am returning it.
I have tried several Jasmine Green teas over the years and this is honestly one of the better ones I have ever tasted. It's light and honestly fills my house with the most lovely Jasmine sent when I brew a cup. The quality for the price is a real selling point and I will buy this again for sure! It's not an everyday tea for me because it's still rather expensive but it's a lovely 'self care' treat!
More flavor than the Fugian. Love them about the same tho.
I enjoy these jasmine pearls everytime I open the bag
I love the fact there is actually jasmine flowers. Very good tea.
My absolute favorite Jasmine tea! These are so flavorful, there s truly none like them! Perfect for relaxing in these troubled times...
I really live this tea, the fragrance is wonderful and it tastes amazing!
My favorite! Very floral and fragrant. I like to use the leaves twice.
Drink this tea for a smooth luxurious taste. The flowery notes aren't overpowering!
I loved this tea! So glad I bought some to try! It's got a nice green tea flavor that's smoother than most due to the jasmine flavor. Very nice!
Delicious! Almost creamy in its soft, Delicate but unmistakable flavor. Doesn't get bitter if over-brewed. Nice addition of jasmine petals to add to the experience. Really lovely tea.
Really strong stuff. Makes me jittery. If you like jittery, this is your kind
This is a great tea with a splendid pleasing taste. I will definitely purchase it again!
This is a very delicate jasmine and also very fun to watch the pearls come undone.
This is so fragrant, so aromatic, so smooth. My favorite!
Lovely green tea, just the right balance of sweet and bitter.
best. afternoon. pick-me-up. ever. light, floral, slightly astringent. sooo good.
Delicious tea! Along with the regular Jasmine Pearls this is by far the best Jasmine tea I've ever had!
