Hand-rolled tea from Fujian, China, infused with the delicate scent of night-blooming jasmine. Each pearl is made up of just one bud and leaf set. Refined, clear and quietly hypnotic fragrance, pleasantly soft texture and delicately dry finish.

These are the best Jasmine Pearls I've had. The description is correct- sugary and jasmine floral combined. It's not an over-powering floral note- it's nice and sweet. This is a high quality tea- I brew it 3 times with equal enjoyment. I will purchase again.
LOVELY tasting tea and smells great! Fun to watch unfurl! =)
Schnap! These pearls are so fresh! Seriously, the level of depth in these pearls is outstanding. Different notes throughout the whole cup with a jasmine finish.
First of all, my first time ordering from Adagio and definately not my last. Fujian Jasmine Pearl is a bit pricey but worth it. The smell alone has an euphoric effect, I stood over it as it steeped and took in the aroma as the pearls unfurled. It taste soft and demure. Pure pleasure in a cup.
This tea is absolutely incredible. Definitely a new favorite.
This is seriously the most delicious jasmine tea I have ever had... I didn't put it in a tea cage or anything, I just dropped the pearls in a cup and poured the water over them. I will be buying this regularly and frequently and hope desperately that I don't run out before more comes!
I don't normally steep more than twice, but I went for three infusions on this one, and it was still just as great the third infusion. Similar to the Jasmine Yin Hao, but seems to hold up better to over-steeping and multiple infusions.
Love this tea. Fragrant and delicate. Excellent iced.
I love this tea in the morning with some light flavored breakfast biscuits (cookies). Just the right amount of jasmine flavor.
Delicious. Perfect in the afternoon when I've just about had enough - completely recharges me :o)
A flawless tea, the pearls unfurl themselves like petals of a delicate flower while brewing, releasing the delicious aroma of jasmine. The subtle flavor remains intact through multiple brews, without even a hint of unpleasant astringency in sight.
I have always loved Jasmine pearls... this blend is one of my absolute favorites!
The best jasmine tea I have ever had very floral, Got hooked right when I open the container >.< Simply Amazing smells and taste just like jasmine ... very bold and intoxicating
Very good tea. The jasmine is Subtle and sweet. I will be getting me some more of this :).
This is possibly my favorite jasmine tea of all time! The aroma is delightful and it holds its flavor for multiple brews.
Fantastic tea if you like a nice green. Very pleasant.
Very visually appealing. As the pearls open up, I think they look more like a white tea leaf. Very powerful jasmine infusion. Glad I only got a sample. Sample was a small sample tin that should last a few months. I would recommend to anyone who likes jasmine tea.
Excellent tea. The flavor of the Jasmine in no way overpowers that of the tea itself.
This tea is so amazing. It smells like magic in the tin, very perfumy and verdant and delicious. And the smell is only intensified in the cup.. The taste is light but not astringent at all, just delicious. Currently my favorite tea! :)
Amazing Jasmine tea. Another reviewer commented that they could not tell much of a difference between this tea and the non-Master's version. They are crazy! This here is the real deal my friends. It's not too overwhelming and not too weak. Perfect.
Holy holy holy amazing. Have gotten many green teas and this is by far my favorite.
Great tea with strong jasmine taste. It is very refreshing.
First Cup
Brewed 8oz with ~10 balls for 3 minutes
Tasting Notes:
First steeping: Extremely fragrant at first, floral and spice notes, with very enjoyable texture and presentation. The underlying spice notes finish with almost a minty/ice while the floral fades softly into a more lasting and complex flavor. The green tea provides a mellow and smooth foundation.
Second Steeping: The floral notes have matured nicely, and are now accompanied by an astringency from the green tea that compliments the still present spiciness. Both cups have had a wonderful silky texture.
Thought I'd give this a try from the master collection. Very unique aroma and flavor. Worth a try, but not a fan.
A much more delicate flavor than the Jasmine Phoenix Pearls. I brew with 3g per 8oz. of water at 180f for 2.5-3 minutes.
They are better than the Phoenix Pearls, but they are also quite a bit more expensive.
I am a huge fan of green tea and my friend recommended this particular tea. I was a bit skeptical since some floral teas can be quite overpowering but this was an exception. This tea is soft, delicate, velvety and luxurious to the tongue. The jasmine complemented the complexity of the tea and I was instantly hooked. I will continue to purchase this tea as it is immediately in my top 3 choices.
Hands down the best jasmine I've tried to date. I picked this up because I was such a fan of the phoenix pearls. While the difference isn't mind blowing you can definitely tell the fujian is a step above. The jasmine flavor is a bit more refined and the other floral notes are a bit stronger. I'd suggest anyone try a sample of this even if you're not a fan of jasmine. lso, you can try a lower temperature, say 17 -18 to get some different flavors and a lighter cup of jasmine.
This cup of tea makes me feel whisked away to a peacful flower garden. The jasmine seems to bloom into flavor in my mouth. Very smooth and no grassiness.
I'm afraid that the jasmine was just too strong in this tea for me. I tend to like my jasmine tea to be a little subtler. That's not to say that it's objectively bad--I'm sure some people love tons of jasmine. This tea just gave me a headache, though.
I've had many, many Jasmine teas, and this is by far the best I've ever had. Not sure how they do it, but the green leaves balance the night blooming Jasmine perfectly! I know this will sound cheesy, but each sip gives your body an instant feeling of 'harmony' - I finally know what people mean when they say a perfect tea is a spiritual experience. I don't know how else to describe it. This tea has the WOW factor!
I used the same tea for about 3 steeps. It's very subtle, but still very good.
one of my favorites! smells wonderful brewing. almost tastes like honeysuckle. tried a second infusion at a higher temp for 5 mins and still came out nice, just a little more delicate.
Wonderful aroma, and a clean taste. At first I was troubled with the smell as it reminds me a lot of a hand soap my mother used to buy. After I was able to break that connection I began to really enjoy this tea.
These little bullets of tea open up in to huge, fragrant leaves that brew amazing tea! I have used leaves for three pots before they lose potency. Sweetened with a pinch of ginger, this makes an amazing floral tea.
This tea is awesome. Super delicious potent jasmine flavor yet somehow subtle and delicate balance. A real treat.
A nice jasmine tea. Good flavors and smell.
Would buy again.
This tea is one of my top five favorites. Like sitting in a quiet jasmine forest the perfume is restorative. And it is a favorite gift for people that I want to take good care of themselves.
OMFG, I have died and gone to heaven. I ordered this because I love the dragon phoenix pearl. I thought it might be a little better. I could not have understated the difference more. The smell is absolutely intoxicating. The taste is amazingly delicious. I have tasted a lot of teas from a lot of companies. This one has NO equal.
Amazing tea. Definitely one of my favorites. Careful not to oversteep, though!
This is good, and it smelled amazing, but it was just a hint blander than I'd prefer. I mostly like to brew it and sit it beside me on my desk. I found steeping more than once wasn't very good, though. Loses all the scent, which is where most of the flavor is.
I just received a sample of this and let's just say that it has ruined me in regards to drinking any other Jasmine tea that is cheap. This stuff smells absolutely awesome when you open the package, and tastes just as good. The amount it calls for in 8 oz seemed to even be too strong for me so I was able to use only about a half teaspoon per cup. I even got several really decent steepings out of it and love watching it unfurl in the process. Makes my house smell like I'm in a good chinese restaurant. I will be ordering this in a larger quantity soon!
This has quickly become my favorite tea. I have it in the morning and a cup to warm up in the evening now that the weather is getting cooler.
You can't beat the aroma of this tea!
I JOVE JASMINE TEA AND THIS IS A GREAT JASMINE TEA I JUST WISH I COULD FIND A GOOD CAFFEINE FREE ONE
An amazing tea that makes me happy just smelling it. The flavor I can ney describe, and will be re-ordering it eventually.
I was extremely satisfied with this tea! I am very picky about jasmine, but this one really hit the spot. It has a nice balance of being very smooth, but subtle if you steep it as directed (you can choose to steep it less or more with very nice effect). I like to think it gives the sensation of sitting on a porch in the woods during a soft rain... but there ya are
It also can be steeped a solid 3 times, which is also very surprising for me in an adagio tea, and I am very happy to have experienced this tea. I will reorder it.
a splendid tea, I tend to steep it for a long soak, and it never tastes bitter. very floral aroma soft and sweet to your mouth.
Amazing, delicate and every bit as fine as the reviews indicate.
The pearls smell wonderful in the tin, but they make a pretty weak cup of tea. I'd take the #9 over these any day
By far the best jasmine tea I've tried. The aroma is flowery but not overpowering, and the flavor is delicate without being weak. Highly recommended!
This is, quite simply, a beautiful tea. Delicate and refreshing, it is wonderful as hot tea, delicious as an iced tea, and perfect for blending with additional white teas. The flavor is unassuming and slight, but unmistakeable, and you'll want to inhale the perfumed scent over and over again straight from the tin. A must-have for any collection.
