Jasmine pearl is my favorite green tea, and this one is definitely a keeper. Beautiful, heady fragrance and bright taste.
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.

A tad pricey but well worth it. Outstanding aroma and flavor, good for multiple steeps.
'This tea tastes, for lack of a better term, 'chemically.' I made it for the first time today and found its smell to be more like tea drenched in an artificial flavor devised in a PepsiCo™ lab by food scientists than an actual tea. The taste was an improvement over the smell, but not so much that I'd actually like to make it again. I love the smell of tea as much as the next guy, but I want it to be fundamentally like tea, not the inside of a warehouse or a perfume. I can't tell if I got a bad batch, or if some of the other reviewers are suffering from what Dan Ariely calls 'The Power of Price: Why a 50-Cent Aspirin Can Do What a Penny Aspirin can't' in his book _Predictably Irrational_.

This tea is absolutely beautiful! If you know what a high quality jasmine smells like, this is very close (jasmine sambac) The wonderful floral notes in the tea dance on your tongue, and a quiet bitterness gives the tea a nice dry finish.
This tea is so good, it definitely is one of the best teas out there. You can really taste and smell the jasmine. I usually only drink it on special occasions. It is good for multiple infusions.
I love this refreshing tea, perfect on its own for multiple steeps...or great to blend with other teas.
Love the small balls of tea - I use 3 or 4 for a nice fragrant evening cup. Add a touch of your favorite sweetener
The Fujian asmine Pearl tea smells heavenly and tastes just as great! The tea brews into a bright yellow color and is terrific served with just a touch of sweetener.
Top jasmine. Very complex floral flavors, strong but not overwhelming. Definitely not an everyday tea, but very good for the occasion.
One of the best jasmine teas I have ever had- reminds me of China teas that I got over there when I was on vacation! Worth the money!
Really nice floral Jasmine, unlike some which are super strong and almost artificial tasting. This one has a softness around the edges, and actually tastes as wonderful as it smells.
I love this tea. The smell is heavenly and sometimes I just hold the cup up to smell it. The taste is wonderful as well. :)
I am a fan of jasmine but my wife isnt (yet) I will need to keep working on that. This tea I found to be full of depth and enlightening.
This was a little too flowery for me. The aroma was much stronger than the taste. Maybe I didn't get the water hot enough? I'll fiddle with the temp before giving up on it.
These smell so dreamy. I took them into my classroom to show my staff before class started. Well, my students (who have autism) could not be deterred by these aromatic little balls of tea. We wound up steeping them and having a little tea party. The adults liked the tea plain, while the kids enjoyed it with a little sugar. The principal of the school even stopped up for a cup. At first I thought I was in trouble, but she told me it was an interesting activity for one of those half days of school...phweeeew!
Spending $9 on a sample of jasmine pearls was more of a 'Are these really THAT good?' sort of response, and they truly are. They're smaller than other Jasmine Pearls that I've gotten, and the aroma is superior and evident as soon as you open the little tin. Too expensive for a daily tea for me, but I would brew it for special occasions!
This tea reminds me of Jasmine #12 that was offered on this site. Overall great, especially when added to Jasmine Silver Needle tea to add a bit more Jasmine and strength to the cup!
wonderful tea - great aroma and lovely delicate flavor
Delicious! Very soft and lite aroma is useful for any occasion, especially very special one. Mind the price though...
This tea has an absolutely clean taste. Correctly brewed, there is no aftertaste, just a delicate slightly sweet taste. The smell is beautiful and delicious. Though expensive, this tea is a staple.
This is a good tea, my favorite Jasmine here so far but a bit too floral for me to drink on a daily basis.
This is a very special tea, from the family of familiar Jasmine Silver Needle, however, a little different quality and characteristics, which is worth trying. Just beware to use frugaly, since the pearls open up in the steeping warm water, and a few pearls might make a strong tea. It is in comparision expensive to the usual tea, but it is special in its own right, and a new item recently introduced.
A tad pricey but an excellent tea! One of my new favorites.
It's very good. Not as sweet as the jasmine phoenix pearl, but has a similar taste. I usually drink this everyday.
A perfect jasmine tea. Delicately floral, not cloying like some jasmine teas can be. Nice body. Love to watch the pearls unfurl. They also make for a nice sachet in your drawers or closet!
The most aromatic jasmine I've tried. However, I can't agree with the brewing instructions. To my taste, use much less than 3 grams of tea per cup - infuse much longer than 2 - minutes.
I have to say this jasmine tea would be hard pressed to find an equal. The words quiet and hypnotic aptly describe this lovely tea. I thought it was quite beautiful, elegant and delicate. A beautiful balance, a delightful cup of tea.
