First order and so far my favorite green. I still have more to try but I will always have these in my pantry!
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.

First order and so far my favorite green. I still have more to try but I will always have these in my pantry!
Good green tea, I'm not the biggest fan of green teas but the jasmine kinds aren't too bad and this one is pretty good.
Probably my favorite tea of all time. The best all around jasmine I've had! I add a little honey to it and it's perfect both in the morning and as an evening tea.
This tea is just ok in my book. Very smooth, but a little too floral for my taste.
This is my all time favorite tea. I love it. The aroma and flavor are fantastic.
Very good taste and is a green tea. I am looking for a black jasmine tea.
Sublime, delicate, sweet, excellent. not cheap though
A beautiful tea all around. Looks great, tastes like spring blossoms, and is perfectly balanced.
I love this tea! It's the best green tea I've ever had. Very clean and fragrant. I generally microwave my water before steeping the tea, but the tea needs to cook a bit so now I microwave the water for 90 seconds, add the tea, then cook for another minute. Works great!
This is most certainly a favorite amongst the greens. The tightly closed pearls of green tea are like a beautiful, yet introverted maiden who when she is exposed to the warmth of genuine kindness, opens her heart to become the Belle of the ball.
oh this is going to be one of my go to Teas. Its just a wonderful experience, it has such a lovely scent that doesn't translate into a very floral flavor. Just yummy
Many reviews lured me to try this tea (even skipped the sample since so many liked it as much or more than the Fujian Jasmine Pearls). I have to say though, I don't find this jasmine tea to be as refined as the Fujian Jasmine Pearl tea. Has a bit more of an after taste to me and just not as pleasing to drink. If you haven't had either one ... I'd suggest starting with this one .. and if you like it, don't try the more expensive Fujian Jasmine Pearls. I feel I may have to gift these to someone so I can justify replacing it the one I enjoy more :(
This is easily one of my favorites especially when I want something mellow in the late afternoon.
I've tried jasmine pearls from several different tea shops and this is my favorite. It has great flavor without being too floral.
At this point, this is my very favorite tea I've purchased from Adagio!
pretty good jasmine... I'm not big on jasmine, but I really dig this one
I never thought I was a fan of jasmine, until this tea. My boyfriend, who is not a tea drinker, even enjoyed a cup with me.
The first time I made this I put the leaves in too soon and the tea was terrible. Once I prepared it according to the directions, it was great.
These I have used for years. I brew them in black tea, such as Scottish breakfast tea, and they soften the taste without overpowering it.
Great! I love to have in my pantry. To my taste this tea is ultimate comfort for dinner/supper time.
This tea has funky appearance. It is nice to brew in a glass teapot in order to see how it will bring these leaves back in life and to your enjoyment. A bit pricy tea, but it's a really good deal at the button of that cup!
These are great! A bit pricey, so definitely only an occasional treat.
This tea has a great flavor and more than a hint of Jasmine. I use a wee bit of raw honey and about 30'ish pearls (I use a tablespoon and whatever stays, brews). I use a French Press for my loose leaf tea (there really is nothing better) and I pour the hot water in and watch the pearls blossom. The second steeping is still very flavorful. This is a quality tea and one I will buy again!
I prepared it hot. I've had this before and really loved it. It's a new staple for me.
A really cute looking tea. I like the taste isn't too floral.
This was a pretty good green tea, I have come to love all green teas I try, this one is pretty strong, I would suggest steeping and removing.
Loved this wonderful, delicate flavor that was slightly sweet on my tongue.
Amazing. This makes a perfect cup of Jasmine tea. Nice balance between green and floral flavor.
I love green jasmine pearls, they're always so refreshing! They're expensive, but worth it, and I'm pretty sure Adagio has the best price on dragon pearls that I've seen. I haven't perfected my brew yet (I think my water has been too cold/haven't used enough pearls to get the right strength in my brew), but even my mistakes led to a tasty cup of tea!
I regularly buy these for my Chinese parents and they love them. You can also get a few steeps out of them since they are pearls so you enjoy a couple cups throughout the day.
One of my favorite teas. Great in the morning or evening. Definitely a go to tea.
Very light so I find myself brewing a bit longer than recommended to get the flavor I want. tastes great mixed with a little peppermint as well. Definitely going to order again.
This is the best tea! So smooth and perfect any time of day.
love that this is not overly floral, perfect for making my jasmine milk-tea
Absolutely love this tea. My favorite tea to date. Will buy again.
Buttery smooth. No dry mouth-feel after. Made me remember why jasmine was my favourite tea as a child.
I've generally found jasmine teas to have a bit of a bite that I don't like but this tea has less of that. The taste is good but I think I drink jasmine tea for the aroma anyway.
I like this tea. it's subtly scented, and the flavor lasts for a many cups. A little bit pricy, but totally worth it
My husband used the whole sample and I got none :(
Smell just like jasmine incense takes us back to our hippy days.
One of the best teas adagio has to offer. Very light and fragrant. Can be brewed multiple times.
These are really good! I love these little pearls. They smell so good when you first open up the packet. They make the perfect green tea.
When I drink this tea, I think of a simpler time: a time when the life-sucking responsibilities of adulthood were far away. The floral notes in this tea provide a calming lull in my day that make me ask myself, 'Is 10am too early for my mid-day nap?' It's always 9pm somewhere, so to heck with saving this tea for nighttime only.
It definitely has a certain sweetness. Mild green with strong jasmine aroma.
I was disappointed with these pearls, was expecting more jasmine scent and flavor. Gave them to a family member then ordered the Fijian Jamine Pearls which were exactly what I had hoped for in a jamine tea.
Purchased as a gift for my sister and she loves them. Will definitely reorder.
When I want to spend a little extra money and have an elegant tea I order this Really a fine tea
Very floral, but balanced jasmine flavor. Slightly sweet
This tea has a light floral scent but not overpowering. I combine it with the sencha tea for a super healthy drink.
Steeped too many, too long, kinda messed me up. Lovely flavor, though, which di enjoyed even as my heart hummed.
Tried this for the first time and was surprised at how good it tastes! Wayyy different than any bagged tea. im usually one to add a little honey but this tea is completely fine by itself. it makes me regret not indulging in loose teas earlier! never knew a tea could be so soft and velvety! yum!!
a tiny bit sugary as described. love this tea, not overly perfumy.
