great jasmine tea. perfect balance of a good white tea flavor and jasmine floral notes
Young and elegant tea leaf buds with a whisper of jasmine. All the appeal and softly sweet nuances of a classic Silver Needle, enhanced with the aroma of night-blooming jasmine flowers. Airy flavor, delicate mouthfeel and pleasantly dry finish.

great jasmine tea. perfect balance of a good white tea flavor and jasmine floral notes
Jasmin Silver Needle is absolutely my favorite tea. I love the jasmin flavor and balance in this tea and love the low caffeine content so I can enjoy anytime of day. I sometimes mix it with white peach for variety and enjoy it hot or cold.
This has quickly become my favorite tea. Light and floral and perfect for an evening cup. Steeping too long the few times I have forgotten a timer leads to a bit of a bitter cup. But a three minute steep is glorious. This is now a tea cupboard staple.
a lovely tea! the jasmine scent is so intoxicating I will always love this delicate tea
A little strong . Still wonderful but maybe not something I would but again.
I absolutely love this. Nice long white leaves with a lovely floral aroma. Doesn't seem to get bitter. I was looking for a less caffeinated version of jasmine tea and this is gteat!
Honestly I feel like I might as well have just bought straight jasmine tea. The concentration of it was too high in the mix and completely overpowered the silver needle. It gets slightly better on the second and third steep, but still too much jasmine. (To be clear, the leaves were still high quality so it tasted good, but like a good cup of JASMINE tea and not a jasmine/silver needle mix. It's not worth it paying for the silver needle if I can't taste it at all.)
Really love the Jasmine flavor in this delicate tea!
A strong flavor bordering on medicinal. Definitely one I have to be in the mood for.
Great Jasmine taste without being too strong. Leaves can be brewed a few times!
My absolute favorite tea. I love white tea and the Jasmine mixed with white is delicious. The Jasmine is not too strong. It's Just a very pleasant flavor to help bring relaxation and calmness. The quality is bar none. I love this tea.
This is still my favorite tea of all time
The jasmine aroma is delightful, and the taste is delicious, not overpowering, yet strong enough to enjoy thoroughly. One of my favorites.
I use this as an iced tea (I cold brew it) and it has the most wonderful texture, very smooth and has a pronounced sweetness with no sugar added.
I love jasmine however this tea didn’t have the flavor I was hoping for.
I've always been a big fan of jasmine tea, but this one is especially good. Jasmine silver needle is a great light tea to warm you up during the cold months. Be careful not to overheat the water though, because the tea WILL burn.
One of the first white teas I've tried from this website, this has a wonderful aroma and an amazing (albeit very light) taste that lingers on the palate long after enjoying a cup (or two!).
This happens to be my favorite. It is a light and refreshing to drink anytime. It is my happy go-to tea.
Gentle and earthy, this tea has a smooth finish and is very soothing.
not using anymore
Subtle and good aroma, a good choice tho a touch expensive
This is a good flavor! Had a friend try it and he named it right away without me saying the name. I've read reviews on other jasmine silver needle teas which a lot of people complain about strength. I would say this is a very good brand as compared to others out there.
One of my top favorite teas! It's become a staple and nothing can compete with this aroma. It's amazing!
nice subtle cup of tea has a very nice green smell, will get again
Jasmine teas are my favorite, but the jasmine silver needle is so incredibly delicate that it has been my 'first in the morning' tea for years now. I think we will be a couple forever.
It's really hard to find a good silver needle at all, much less jasmine. This is a special find for me.
it's a finiky tea that's for sure, but oh so good if you want a really good cup of jasmine.
Very nice. Light jasmine flavor, makes for a pretty looking cup.
I bought this to indulge a geek impulse and find out what Uncle Iroh from Avatar: The Last Airbender was talking about. I now fully understand and this is quickly becoming a favorite. I was able to steep this about 3 times before the flavor started to give out. Overall very impressed.
Just ok. I ended up not enjoying the flavor and aroma of this when compared to, say, a jasmine green tea pearl, as it was a little too potpourri-ish for me. :(
It's great but I've had better. It's not as floral as id like it to be .
Delicious with honey, it's very light but easily masked by other sugar additives.
My husband tried this tea and he liked it. He stated it's one of his top 5 teas. :)
Lovely aroma, but the jasmine flavor could be a bit stronger for me. Beautiful leaves!
This is a lovely delicate flavored tea. It is a great afternoon pick me up
this tea is jasmine incarnate. as soon as you pour yourself a cup the jasmine smacks you in the face in the best way possible.
Possibly the best jasmine tea I ve ever had. I made a large dispenser full and keep it chilled in my fridge, for when I need a nice cooling pick-me-up.
...Soapy?? But a good soapy. It s good, but I wouldn t offer it to a new houseguest. I m keeping this to myself, not only because it s good and also slightly more expensive, but because I think not everyone can appreciate the floweriness of this tea. The leaves look gorgeous brewed gongfu style. Please don t throw this wonderful tea in an infuser, it would be a sin.
Nice light jasmine flavor, surprisingly fruity and floral while remaining very light and drinkable.
light, sweet and the best way to describe this tea is delightful. One of the best white teas I've ever had.
I enjoyed this sample of tea very much. I just prefer other jasmine teas over this one for the price. It s a light jasmine flavor with great Silver needle tea. The combo is a win win!
Very light and delicate. Not a whole lot of flavor, its good on ice
My favorite tea. Very fragrant and mellow. Also very easy to brew.
Nice, but a bit delicate. Solid jasmine aroma and flavor.
My other go to tea!! Live it with the Jasmine Pearls!!
Loved this tea - wonderfully scented and mild but at the same time very tasty. I'll probably stick with this one for a long time. I don't need to use as much as directed, however. About a teaspoon makes at least 3 cups for me but I do let it brew a while in my glass teapot.
This is my favorite tea by far. My guests all fall in love with this.
Good company do business with good VALUE n good service what more anyone want ? Some reviews said tea taste bitter OF CAUSE If infused longer than the suggested time Great tea more then just put hot water into the tea ?
The pouch says to steep this for 3-5 minutes, but I've found 7 is best for white teas. This has an intense jasmine aroma and flavor, that's only slightly weakened on the second steeping. Even better, both lingered as my tea cooled. I found this to be a truly immersive jasmine tea experience, but I can see how it might be overwhelming for someone looking for a more delicate floral sip. I'd try one of the green jasmines for that.
This is one I personally feel should be brewed at a much higher temperature than the package tells you. At 180 degrees, it tasted like little more than got leaf water. And that s after steeping for 8 minutes instead of 3 too. So much more wonderful flavors are released when brewed hotter and longer with this tea! I recommend 190-200, maybe even boiling if you really want a strong cup, and steep for 15 minutes. It never really got bitter for me, so you shouldn t have to worry about it. But almost no matter how you do it, you should love this tea if you enjoy Jasmine!
Tangerine Tuxedo is a popular style of tea in China. This unique treat is made by hollowing out a tangerine, stuffing it with black tea and then letting it dry out and age as one. The fruit infuses the leaves with its citrus notes, smoothing out the earthy tea when brewed. Its traditional use is for soothing the stomach and is commonly drunk in the winter months or after meals.
