I've always enjoyed 'pearl' teas and the jasmine phoenix are no exception. A great combination of great tea and jasmine flavor, that holds up well with repeated seepings.
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.

Fantastic jasmine tea. Excellent, smooth flavor. It smells very strong but the flavor isn't as overpowering and turns out just right.
This is my crack!!! My husband doesn't even like to see my tea jar get too low!!!
Jasmine pearls have always been one of my favorite teas. This tea is very smooth and has wonderful floral overtones.
Tried
The bestgreen tea ever, period. No complains at all.
Jasmine pearls have long been a favorite of mine. These are wonderful and light. The jasmine scent wafts out of the cup and just melts stress away! Is that hyperbole? A little. I have tried other dragon pearls that cost more and this one tastes just as good, if not better. It will always remind me of the first time I had it in San Francisco eating dim sum on a Sunday morning. I recommend this tea without reservation.
I absolutely love these, they're completely worth the price (but poor grad-student-me wishes they were cheaper so I could buy in bulk!)
This is a very yummy jasmine tea with a wonderful scent. It is light in flavor, smooth, and sweet-seeming even without sugar. This tea is lighter in jasminnyness (flavor and scent) than the fujian jasmine pearl and is more rounded and less crisp with more of a vegetal note. While this tea is great, trying both this and the fujian makes me appreciate why the fujian is in the 'masters' section.
This is very good jasmine tea, although, admittedly, I am rather new to the loose leaf tea scene. It is smooth and sweet and is good for 3-4 brews, each with their own characteristics.
Really really lovely. The jasmine scent is JUST right, light and pleasant instead of perfumey. The tea itself has a really lovely flavor to it and the whole thing is just really enjoyable, from steeping to drinking.
This is my absolute favorite tea with a marvelous hint of Jasmine.
I loved these! They were so much fun to watch brew! The jasmine was really well balanced too. Not too powerful but very sweet. I can see why this particular tea is so expensive now. The quality and time that was put into these is amazing and it really shows!
This tea has the most wonderful jasmine aroma
very similar to jasmine yin hao but stronger. A little goes a long way. Can be used for multiple steepings. Personally this is not a staple tea for me, rather a 'on occasion' tea.
I LOVE these little things. Smells and tastes amazing, as I am one who loves a tea with a heavy jasmine smell. Very smooth and relaxing
Good tea...I think I let it steep just a tad too long. Will definately try again...maybe with a little sugar or honey
I LOVE THIS TEA. IT TASTES LIKE DRINKING SWEET JASMINE FLOWERS, I DO LIKE THE FUJIAN JASMINE PEARLS, FROM THE MASTER'S COLLECTION, MORE BUT THIS DOESN'T HAVE AS MUCH OF A CAFFEINE PUNCH WHICH I LIKE. I'M VERY SENSITIVE TO CAFFEINE!
The jasmine aroma is strong and this tea has a very pleasant bitterness, just the way I like it. This is the only tea my parents like from my collection, and I don't blame them
I am apparently not a fan of Jasmine tea. I found the scent to be overwhelming when I opened the package, not subtle as many reviewers mentioned. The flavor was more balanced than the aroma led me to believe. However, I truly found it to have a bubble gum flavor on the palate.
Nice Jasmine flavor. Mild green tea. I like to mix it with oolong and/or silver needle.
I normally don't like green teas that much, but this one was so delicious! A very nice flavor, and no bitterness that usually comes with green teas to it at all.
Very floral, my husband loves it, i dont. It reminds me of foam tub toys
Amazing smell, amazing taste. Possibly one of my favorite teas, and ive tried a LOT of teas!
this is a decent jasmine tea for its price range I think. It is only truly good for 1-2 steepings however, and is not distinguished in flavor, falling short of a truly good higher quality jasmine
Wonderful jasmine flavor! Don't oversteep or it may be overwhelming.
A good quality jasmine green tea. The smell was good and I was able to infuse the pearls about 3 times without losing any flavor.
This tastes amazing--soft and not at all bitter. The jasmine fragrance is strong but not too strong. I like this much better than Jasmine Yin Hao, which I found bitter.
This tea is very smooth and has a nice floral aroma. I will buy this again.
This is my first jasmine tea and I'm glad i gave it a shot. The taste is smooth and drinkable even after 3 steepings. This may become my go to green tea.
Good for a jasmine tea, I am partial to pearl type teas for the simple measuring process.
I am told that the jasmine varies based on the season, but when I ordered my first order six months ago, it was great, however, my large order was just sub-par. I have been with Adagio for nearly 15 years and expect more from this company. I fear they have gotten too big to be concerned about quality.
elegant tasting tea, perfect little afternoon pickmeup!
A wonderful, lightly sweet tea. The jasmine flavor and aroma are well pronounsed, but not overpowering.
These jasmine pearls have a wonderfully sweet smell, and make a delicious cup of tea.
I've had my fair share of Jasmine, and this is one of my favorites!
there is no better green tea out there on the market
It smells delicious in the bag, but it's not strong enough for me. I prefer the jasmine yin hao
Good tea, but not stunningly spectacular. A solid offering.
One of my favorite pearls tea! Perfect flavor and name!
I love these jasmine pearls! This is one of the few teas that I actually prefer with honey, because the taste of honey and the scent and flavor of jasmine flowers go so wonderfully well together. This tea always peps me up and comforts me at the same time. Definitely recommend for all jasmine lovers.
I adore this tea. It is pretty pricey, but definitely worth it. Smells and tastes delicious.
Subtle sweetness. Tastes great with a european biscuit.
This is a fantastic blend for a hot or cold tea. It is sweet enough that most would not consider adding anything to the tea. I let mine steep a little bit longer and it just seems to get better in time! I only tried the sampler... but a bigger bag is on the menu next time!
when I started pouring the cup the smell of the Jasmine hit me like a truck and I was worried about how strong the flavor would be. I needn't have bothered though as the Jasmine tastes wonderful and is not to strong at all. This is a very smooth and highly drinkable tea.
I've bought this tea many times and I'll continue to buy it in the future. An excellent tea at an excellent price.
WOW! What a wonderful
REALLY a strong -- and to my olfactory receptors, not that inviting -- floral aroma, REALLY. Taste is light and bright, pearls unfold majestically, but the aroma... whew!
A tea that really appeals to multiple senses... from watching the pearls unfurl, to the pleasant aroma, leading to a very smooth, but light, floral flavor. One of my favorites to simply relax with.
I got three steeps out of my first try of the jasmine phoneix pearls, and the flavor was just fantastic. Watching the pearls unfold was neat! Just err on the side of the water being too cold rather than too hot...I got a burned taste with my first cup, but the next two were perfect.
