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.

This year’s pearls (22) smell heavenly and have a fresh sweet scent that has been missing for a couple years! This is the best Jasmine pearl I have had at this cost. It has the sweet smell and light taste that makes this tea so easy and relaxing to drink both hot and iced.
At first the brew looked so light I was wondering if it needed more time. (I had let water get a little cool...) but even though it was practically see-through it was very flavorful. I love the smell of the jasmine and the pearls were fun to watch unfold. Was not bitter at all. 5 grams. Got 3 good steeps. By 4 was starting to lose flavor enough to not be as good.
This is a strong Jasmine. The way the pearls unravel looks just as amazing as the tea tastes.
Very smooth , tasty tea AAA+++ great tea ...
This tea is a family favorite and we can't go without it.
Can steep 2-3 times max before it starts to get bitter. Smells great and the balls swell to a far greater size then what you'd expect.
this one was super light and refreshing. its a little bit expensive to drink on a daily basis. kind of a 'i earned this' kind of tea to sit back and drink
Nice jasmine pearls, but I don’t know that I can taste much difference compared to more economical versions.
LOVE the jasmine fragrance of the pearls! Perfect accompaniment for my morning routine. Unfold beautifully.
The best jasmine tea I have ever tasted, does not taste like perfume.
One of my favorites really takes me back and I haven’t had this tea in so long
I love this it's so refreshing and the fragrance is lovely. I suggest not leaving the bag in for too long or it'll be too strong and bitter.
Update: I think they changed the tea a little, not sure but I think it is improved because it has more jasmine flower petals and smells so good! I love it, thank you!
I love watching this tea steep. It is one of my favorite green teas. I think the Jasmine flavor can be hit or miss for some but I really enjoy it. It is a pretty light tea but don't over steep. It will get an unpleasant flavor if over it over steeps.
love these little pearls. I don't drinking them alone i add them to different teas to switch it up a bit
It’s so hard to capture this taste in words but the closest I’ve gotten to it is a thick forest after a downpour during a warm night. It’s simply earthy. Flavor is even better after it cools.
Wonderful addition if you’re feeling sick. I add this with Orange and mint too
My favorite tea I’ve ordered from this app, quality leaves and sweet floral nectar
One of my favorites. Jasmine Phoenix Pearls clean and balanced flavor and aromatic qualities are truly lovely.
I enjoyed this tea a lot. I'm not a jasmine fan but I loved the pearls. Perfect for a glass pot. The jasmine petals were a nice visual touch. Good hot and iced. The Jasmine was not overpowering allowing the green to shine through.
I brew cooler and short as I do not care for bitterness. This tea resteeped well.
This is my go to tea for special occasions. Love the aroma. Mmmmm
My absolute favorite! I drink at least a cup a day. I steep a fresh cup for 4 minutes, then reuse the leaves (plus a few extra cause I like it strong) and steep for 6 minutes. If you liked Teavana’s Jasmine dragon pearls, this is an excellent replacement.
Very smooth and floral and just the perfect amount of jasmine. I love watching them unfurl in the cup!
This tea has a sweet floral aroma and taste. My second steep will be at 180 for three minutes. I tried it at the recommended 195 and there was a touch of bitterness.
My go to hot tea! My favorite for years! A staple in my kitchen.
Very strong aroma that transfers well to the steeped tea.
these are amazing if you love jasmine tea and want to up the quality. So much flavour packed in a really cool package
I prefer black tea to green, and find the scent of jasmine to be one I associate with perfume, so I am not the target consumer for this blend. My sister, however, is the opposite. She prefers green tea, and is particularly fond of jasmine. She loved this blend and has requested I buy more for her.
Jasmine green is one of my favorites, and I love the choice to make this particular one pearls. Its equally as good western style, gongfu style, and cold.
Possibly the best jasmine green I've had. Love the pearls here too. Seems to be slightly more tolerant to oversteeping before it gets bitter, but I would still not recommend doing that.
my all time go to tea, fragrant and flowery good for any time
One of my favorite go to teas! The flavor is mild and smooth with a slight nutty hint. Great for my morning tea with breakfast or just to sip throughout the day.
Have enjoyed many times before and will continue to do so. One of my favorite green teas.
This is a great tea! The Adagio version is just as delicious as the one I used to buy from Teavana. Jasmine and green tea is a perfect combination, and the rolled tea leaves open up gradually, allowing the drinker to enjoy multiple steeps. I steeped at 190 degrees for 2-1/2 minutes the first time and got 2 additional steeps at 2 minutes each. I tried both rock sugar and raw honey in very small amounts, and prefer the flavor of the honey. I plan to add some fruit tisanes to this tea, especially peach serenity, a terrific companion for this tea!
After drinking mainly black tea for many years, I've started to appreciate other varieties as well and am glad I decided to come back to this one. The jasmine aroma is wonderful and the the taste is far more subtle than I expected. Sweet without being overpowering and the great floral notes that I was expecting. Not sure why I didn't enjoy it as much the first time I tried it a few years ago, but now one of my new favorites!
This is probably one of my all time favorite teas!
When you drink this tea it is like being outside on a summer evening sitting on a porch and smelling the jasmine vines. Very peaceful. Excellent taste, lovely colour, very special tea. Don't steep too long. This is my daughter's all time favorite tea. I have to order it by the pound. My favorite too, never gets bitter. My daughter craves it and drives me crazy whenever she runs out .Back again, this remains one of our family's favorite teas. It's just so tasty and the smell is so delicious. If you do have any memories tied in with the smell of jasmine flowers it really will take you on a memory voyage.
Really good quality Jasmine green tea. More Jasmine flavor than green tea flavor which I prefer. I can get 2 brews out of a serving.
Of the floral teas, Jasmine is one of my favorites. The Jasmine Pearls are lovely to watch as they unfurl during steeping, so use a clear glass vessel if you have one. I usually prepare pure and fragrant teas gongfu style and the pearls continue to offer up wonderful flavor over many steeps.
I know this is a favorite on Adagio, but for my tastes I think it is not as good as many of the other jasmine options.
Lovely smell. Perfect for a light summer day. Very refreshing. Even better cold.
Beautifully aromatic, a light tea very calming and good for meditation
Really great tea - lighter fragrance than some other jasmine teas, but the flavor packs a punch. This is a huge hit in my home and one I'll definitely look to buy again in the future
Delicious! This was such a light yet flavorful tea - perfect for a slow start to the day or with something sweet.
I really liked the subtle Jasmine flavor. Would try again.
I haven't really enjoyed green tea in the past for whatever reason (always been more of a black tea kind of guy) but these absolutely killed it for me. Immediately ordered a full bag after trying my sample.
One of my favorites! Love watching this tea unfurl. Jasmine carry’s to second and usually the third steep.
I love jasmine pearls. Adagio has very good ones, very fragrant and smooth. They have a very strong, sweet jasmine aroma so this tea might not be for everybody but for those who like flowery tea this is as good as it gets.
Smooth and flavorful! My favorite tea. It’s enjoyable hot or iced…
One of my all time favorites. It is a very floral jasmine.
Really nice delicate warm tea just like tevanna. Mi will definitely buy again.
