Jasmine Phoenix Pearls Customer Reviews

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.

Really enjoy this tea and so does everyone I have let try it.

★★★★★

Fantastic jasmine tea. One of my favorites from Adagio. This is easily some of the top I've had.

I also would add it was almost all tea, no sticks or other junk!

★★★★☆

This tea has a beautiful fragrance of jasmine. I always end up adding more honey to jasmine teas because, to me, there is a slight acidic taste that tickles my ears in the same way that lemon does! I am trying to try and try jasmine teas because they are so popular and I hope to have the same appreciation. I can say, however, that this is the nicest jasmine tea I have tried so far. The 'pearls' are precious and it's amazing how large the tea leaves unfurl into. Pearl-teas feel so special!

The aroma is is the part I love the most. A little aromatherapy in a cup!

My favorite jasmine. A nice mellow tea base with a subtle, yet not weak, jasmine infusion. I find that the higher the grade of jasmine tea, the less 'perfume in a cup' it becomes as the tea and the jasmine blend better together. This is the tea all of the other jasmine teas I have had are trying to be.

★★★★★

Wonderful! I bought these for my mother, who is a huge fan of jasmine green, and she found them delightful. I broke from my usual habit of using loose-tea bags because I wanted to see how the little pearls react in water. To our surprise and delight, they slowly unfurled and eventually filled the cup, almost like a blooming tea! Fun! Due to the large size of the unfurled leaves, it was easy to pour the brewed tea into another cup, with the leaves left behind. We placed the leaves into leftover hot water, hoping to get another steeping out of them. Even if they don't do much in the second batch of water, though, we are very pleased with this tea. It smells like Heaven and the jasmine flavor is pronounced but not to the exclusion of the flavor of the green tea underneath. I didn't drink a lot of it myself so cannot comment much further, alas, but my mother loves it and I'd heartily recommend these to anyone who likes jasmine green tea. (And anyone who likes blooming tea - seriously, watching the little pearls unfurl was surprisingly entertaining!)

★★★★★

A truly extraordinary tea, from the luscious aroma to the delicate, complex flavor. One of our all-time favorite teas.

★★★★★

I let mine strap 3 min for a lighter taste. Elegant tea full of flavor!

★★★★★

Short steep time, cool water. Good for about 3 or so steeps, then the jasmine starts to fade

Although this tea came in second place when I tried the jasmine tea sampler, it is an excellent tea. It has a delicate, flowery taste and scent.

★★★★☆

The flavor of this tea is wonderful, but the scent was overpowering for me. I don't generally care for the smell of jasmine and while the flavor was delicious, the smell killed it for me. I do however like to toss one ball into my citron green and that puts it over the top for me and I love it.

★★★★★

This is one of my favorite teas! Not only is it beautiful in its glass container, it smells wonderfully of jasmine, has just the right amount of caffeine, and is delicate yet full bodied.

★★★★★

Very nice. One of my favorites. This tea has a gentle fragrance and taste, it's delicious but not overpowering. Also got it for my mother who loved it and asked for more. A hit.

★★★★★

These are little magical pearls of goodness!! I'm enjoying mixing these with other teas!

★★★★★

One of my all time favorite teas! I always try to keep a little bit around.

★★★★★

Delicious perfumy floral tea. Lots of flavor even when brewed on the weak side.

Perfect Jasmine Tea. Definitely follow the instructions and only step for 2 mins. Otherwise it will get really bitter.

★★★★★

My standard small tea (Korean ceramic individual); rest water two minutes after boiling, then step 4 minutes.

My favorite tea (so far) is jasmine tea. I'm by no means a connoisseur nor have I tasted an exorbitant amount of teas, but I know what I like. This jasmine tea is my new favorite. It smells absolutely heavenly. It brews the best cup of tea I've ever had. It's super smooth and isn't at all bitter like some jasmines I've tasted. I love watching the pearls unfold into beautiful, whole leaves. It'll even steep a second time. albeit a bit weaker. I've found my new favorite tea.

★★★★★

Delicate and delicious, these pearls brew a wonderful cup of tea.

This tea is near perfect. I love taking it with me to work or having a cup at home.

★★★★★

I have green tea with breakfast and jasmine phoenix pearls is one of my choices.

★★★★★

One of the best teas I've tried. Great flavor and satisfying

★★★★★

It's hard to find a great jasmine pear tea. This one is beautiful.

★★★★☆

I drink all of my teas without sugar or honey. This tea was just a little too flowery for me to drink without any sweeteners, and I didn't succumb to any sugary substances, BUT what I did do was add a little Honeybush Hazelnut to it, and oh my goodness...what a difference! I recommend trying it out if this tea isn't to your liking by itself.

★★★★★

Jasmine tea is always my favorite and this tops all I have tried.

★★★★★

An exceptional tea and also fun to watch the leaves unfurl. The taste of Jasmine is just right, not overpowering at all.

Very nice, refreshing tea. I usually mix this with some mint and/or black

★★★★★

This tea is one of my favorites! Just a small amount goes a long way... Its delicate taste is very calming.

★★★★☆

This is such a clean-tasting, pleasant cup of tea. It's got jasmine flavor but it's not overpowering at all, and it smells really nice as it brews.

★★★★★

By far- and coming from someone who once eagerly poked around Asian grocery stores- this is the best jasmine tea I've had yet! It's very smooth and fragrant. As soon as I opened the package, I knew it was going to be good- if I could properly brew it. The previous teas I've tried that were jasmine in flavor, I just couldn't do it- they'd be burned or not hot enough or too rough at the edges.

I've since gotten unused to jasmine tea, but I'm going to fall right back in love with it now. I also have a tin of the master's jasmine tea, so I'm looking forward to this as well.

I am not crazy about jasmine flavor about I am trying to broaden my horizons with flavors. What is truly amazing about this tea is how long the leaves stay flavorful.

★★★★★

My mom goes through a bag of these a month. Definitely recommend it to any jasmine lovers.

★★★★★

Sweet, clean, and refreshing. Highly recommend this tea

★★★★★

This is my favorite tea in the world. I now buy it in the one pound bags, because that is the best I've ever had, and I've been drinking this tea for over 10 years. I drink at least three Venti sized cups a day, and swear that the jasmine in this particular size is the best I've ever had. I am mow a loyal customer and have sent yet another order for a one pound bag. You make my favorite tea better than anyone else has.

One of my favorites for relaxing in the evenings. Mild taste, not overly flowery.

★★★★★

This was a pleasant surprise for all of us - carefull to not brew too long. Don't want to lose that wonderful jasmine smell. this is actually the first 'Jasmine' tea in 50+ years I have had, that actually smells like Jasmine flowers.

★★★★☆

I am rating this 'good' simply because I previously tried the masters version.

★★★★★

I love jasmine pearls. Every time I have them, they give out unforgettable aromas and the tea tastes great.

★★★★★

Cute little green gems. Great flavor. Cold or hot equally delicious!

★★★★★

Jasmine is the only type of green tea I like, and this is the best jasmine green tea I've found. I've tried less expensive variations, not worth it.

★★★★☆

I consider this tea more a novelty than anything else. It has a pleasant, unique taste, but it's not my favorite kind of jasmine tea. Phoenix pearls are great for Gong Fu style brewing, as the flavor slowly develops through each steeping. It's nice to steep them in glass, so you can see the leaves slowly unfurl.

★★★★★

nothing else like it on the market. jasmine phoenix pearls have an absolute monopoly on the tea market

A really good jasmine pearl tea! Floral, with a smooth green tea taste. I could drink it all day.

★★★★★

I bought this to share with a friend who never had tried jasmine tea and she was mesmerized with watching the little pearls blossom. It has a very delicate flavor and is really nicely balanced.

★★★★☆

I purchased some jasmine black tea pearls from a different store and fell in love with that tea. I decided to try the green tea variation to see how it compares. This tea is very floral, and has a lightness about it that the black tea did not. It's one of my favorite teas that I've purchased.

★★★★★

This is a wonderful Jasmine tea. The Jasmine flavor is strong and smooth. This tea screams quality. Drinkability is very high, I'd usually make a large pot (approx 5 cups) and drink the whole thing myself. The pearls make measuring very easy and they're on the small side so ratio is easy to achieve. I highly recommend this tea.

Drinking this as I type. I wasn't sure how to make it at first as I am new to the warm tea drinking but this one I have just done a bit of honey with and its been marvelous.

★★★★★

Smells and taste great! Jasmine is my favorite tea.
