Green tea from the slopes of the Taimu Mountains in Fujian, China. The delicate, unopened buds appear perfectly white against the young, opened green leaves. Warm colored liquor with a fresh, almost wildflower sweet scent and slightly dry finish.

★★★★★

This is a wonderful tea! I love to bend it with a little Citron Green too. A genuine green tea experience to lift the spirits!

★★★★★

A lovely light and sweet green tea. High on my reorder list!

★★★★★

This is a wonderful mild green tea. It's what i go for first in the mornings at work.

★★★★☆

Very delicate green tea with a hint of sweetness to it. I like to steep it for longer than 3 minutes otherwise it's too light for me.

★★★★★

Hand-made tea bags made with White Monkey were such a hit with my co-workers that I will soon need to reorder. Everyone enjoys its bright, cheerful freshness. It is a perfect pick-me-up that clears the mind and makes the day seem young.

★★★★★

White monkey is an excellent green tea that brews up very delicate and crisp.

★★★☆☆

I have no recollection of this tea, good or bad, but apparently it was not terribly to my liking or I would have remembered it.

★★★★★

This is an excellent green tea. I can see why it's called 'white' - so light and 'monkey' - so delightful. I had to upgrade to the large size on this one, as I have with all my favorites so far. Better hot than iced...better straight than with honey.

★★★★☆

This tea is beautiful, very soft and subtle. Do try.

★★★★★

Excellent green tea. Very light - almost white tea. Subtle and sweet.

★★★☆☆

While I have yet to try an Adagio tea I did not like, this tea was a little weak for me. It still tasted good, though. Just not what I expected.

★★★★★

This is a very distinctive, sparkly and bright tea without any of the draughty heaviness that usually typifies a chinese green. It's quite light, though, which is good for a change. And it doesn't seem to get bitter when oversteeped! very sweet, too...

★★★★★

This stuff is really good! A perfect balance of all the flavors I drink tea to experience.

★★★★☆

A soft flavor and nice clear color. It's a pretty tea that tastes as gentle as it looks.

★★★★★

A new favorite. My morning is right with a pot of white monkey to start. Clean and yet flavorful.

★★★★☆

A nice green tea, I'm usually a black tea drinker, so I like a little more flavor. This is a good alternative though. It is also a good base tea to mix flavors with to get a special cup. I like 1 1/2 teaspoons + one teaspoon of a fruity flavor.

★★★★☆

This is a subtle tea that is worth a try. It won't necessarily stand out, but it won't disapoint either.

★★★★★

One of my favorite green teas. It has a fruity non-grassy taste. If your not into grassy green teas this one is for you.

★★★★★

This is a wonderful green whose taste is very close to a white. It is smooth and sweet and just slightly grassy. It is very relaxing, for a green tea. One of my favorites, for sure.

★☆☆☆☆

This tea really did nothing for me. Not only bland, but the flavor that was there was poor. Sorry.

★★★★★

The scent of the tea is very fresh, and it's definitely a green tea, even though the name could lead you to believe it's white. It has a nice, fresh taste also. A nice cleansing pallette taste to it.

★★★★☆

This is my first green tea, and I like it very much - it has a good light flavor and no bitterness.

★★★★☆

Not my favorite green, but very good. This makes a very light color and has a very subtle taste.

★★★★☆

This a is smooth, pleasant green tea. Tastes good without sugar and doesn't seem to taste bad on oversteeping.

★★★★☆

Good green tea (despite the name), but a sublte taste. I have to increase the amount of tea I used to get the taste I wanted.

★★★★★

I typically need sugar with my teas but not with this one. Responds well to over-seeping which I tend to do. No nasty green tea bite what-so-ever! My new favorite for healthy green tea!

★★★★★

A green tea that doesn't get bitter! Strong enough to easily get three cups. Favorite around here--buying more.

★★★★★

An excalant tea. Its a little different from what I usualy drink but it is an great tea. highly recomended.

★★★☆☆

This is one of my least favorite teas. It was a bit too earthy and not smooth at all but ok to drink every now and then.

★★★★★

This one was delicious. I thought Dragonwell was great, but this one tops the list!! I absolutely love this one. If you are braindead as I sometimes am, this one does not get bitter when you get sidetracked and ovesteep!

★★★★★

This is my favorite green tea. Its very light - but refreshing. I brew it for a couple minutes longer than suggested. I love it mixed with one o the fruit teas - like cherry or mango.I use the hemp paper filters for the best summer iced tea.

★★★★★

This seems more like a white tea than a green tea. It is a naturally sweet tea, and is light and refreshing. I enjoy it in the evening and after work as a break from Jasmine, my after work wind down tea. The name really caught me I must say, and I'm happy it did.

★★★★★

THIS IS DEFINITLY THE BEST YET. MY SUSHI CHEF WOULD NOT TELL ME WHERE TO GET GOOD GREEN TEA, NOW I WON'T TELL HIM EITHER

★★★☆☆

Not my favorite. Not much flavor, even after steeping for quite a while.

★★★★★

Perhaps my personal favorite. Has receive the majority of votes from the electoral college. Some what more promonitly leafed. Brews an excellent beverage.

★★★★★

The best green tea I have ever tried. It has a rich, wonderful flavor and is great for a relaxing afternoon.

★☆☆☆☆

yuck. Just didn't like it, though you may.

★★★★★

My favorite green so far. I liked this very much. Didn't expect it to be white in the mug but it is :)

★★★★★

my first foray into green teas (am a newbie tea drinker) and i liked the scent and am excited to check out the green tea offerings.

★★★★★

Another amazing white tea. Is this a white Oolong?

★★★★★

very good tea -- a bit light tasting but enjoyable after a long day...

★★★★☆

Love getting samples and being able to try different teas out.

★★★★☆

Pretty nice. Leaves are light and fluffy. Taste is very refreshing. A bit minty and "green" tasting as well.

★★★★☆

This was the first one I had tried. I had never hat White monkey so I wasn't sure what I was expect but it had a good taste.

★★★★★

another smooth, excellent white tea.

★★★★☆

A different kind of green tea. Smokey and sweet, no grassy like most.

★★★★★

This is a wonderful tea! Other than the amusement factor in a green tea called "White Monkey," it has a light color and a subtle but great taste to it. I'll be ordering this one again.

★☆☆☆☆

I am new to tea an a coffee drinker that likes it black so my opinion should not weigh much, but I threw this sample in the trash. I prefer the dragonwell for green tea.

★★★★★

What a great tea! Very mellow with a slightly sweet undertone. This is a very relaxing tea to drink!

★★★★★

One of my favorite green tea. Delicate and refreshing, without the bitter taste of a lot of green tea.
