This is a very impressive tea. It feels luxurious, in a way. The taste reminds me of how honeysuckle smells!
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.

The scent of this tea reminds me of honeysuckle. It was very smooth and luxurious. It is a bit expensive but it is totally worth it. I love this tea!
Very nice tea. So relaxing and pleasant. The Jasmine flavor was a little distracting for somehow. Definitely a good one to try though.
I am a geek for jasmine tea. I usually go with a green tea jasmine but I tried this silver needle variety and am loving it. White tea for me is a cold drink. I can enjoy it warm in the morning or perhaps really late at night if I want to fall asleep afterwards, but there's nothing like a cold white tea and the jasmine flavor in this really sells it. A little bit of sugar if cold, straight up if it's hot.
Good flavor. Steeped 3 min. Good for morning break
This tea smells and tastes amazing. It has a sweet floral aroma.
Very light white tea that's perfect to start the morning.
Jasmine silver needle is one of my absolute favorites. It is one of the few teas that is as flavorful as it is aromatic.
Hands down one of my favorite teas from adagio, if not possibly my most favorite. Super floral in aroma but not overpowering in taste.
A soft, sweet, light floral, very pleasant and warming, *and* good when warm or cold or plain or sweetened -- the possibilities, they are endless! The jasmine flavor here is a little more strong/sharp than it is in Jasmine Phoenix Pearls (which has a sweeter taste overall, methinks), and thus I believe I shall stick with the Phoenix Pearls instead of the Silver Needle for now.
Really nice blend here. Well worth a try for all that love white teas.
Lovely, delicate. A really good cup of jasmine tea.
When I was much younger, I would spend happy portions of my summer smelling the honeysuckle in my grandmother's yard, and I remember guessing, by that smell, what it would taste like if I just popped a flower into my mouth. While the honeysuckle flower was actually somewhat disappointing, this tea tastes exactly like I thought the honeysuckle would: airy-sweet, and pleasantly floral. And the aroma would be worth buying by itself. In my opinion, this tea is best enjoyed slowly and in small amounts.
It smells really good. However, it left a slightly bitter aftertaste.
Great taste and calming effect. Best time to drink it, at bed time.
This green tea has a very floral or perfume aroma that is enjoyable if this is the kind of aroma you are looking for. Has a nice mellow green tea flavor just very fragrant floral aroma.
Beautiful tea leaves to look at and it taste is incredible as well.
Got this tea for a friend so I didn't try it myself, but apparently it was great!
This was so delicious I save it for really special moments.
This tea has a really lovely, delicate flavor and taste.
I usually find jasmine teas almost overpowering but the jasmine was subtle enough to lend just the right amount of much needed floral notes to the silver needle.
This has become a favorite of ours. It is delicious on the palate and the beautiful floral aroma reminds me of Hawaii.
Just great! Silky, pure, soft and refreshing, all at once. Specially nice to relaxe ones stommac after a meal.
This is my favorite tea of all time, just the right amount of jasmine, never bitter
A really nice smooth jasmine tea. It makes me want to try the regular silver needle now, and also experiment with steeping times.
I love this tea and highly recommend it. More affordable than plain silver needle, and the jasmine really gives it the right flavor. My friend bought me samples of both this and plain silver needle. And while I liked both, I secretly added some jasmine yin hao to the plain silver needles occasionally (which is a mix I also recommend)
So nice and smooth, very light and soothing. One of my favorite teas, overall it's very nice to drink and tasty! :)
Subtle jasmine flavor, not-so-strong, maybe too subtle for me.
Wonderfully light, fresh white tea, with a really fragrant jasmine finish that doesn't feel overpowering.
If you like jasmine, you will love this tea. Very delicious.
This is the best jasmine tea I have ever had. The jasmine is delightful without being 'perfumey' or soapy tasting. The needles never get bitter. If I accidentally brew too long, I get strong tea, not bitter. Add a little hot water, and all is well. I get a lot of brews out of the needles, and flavor stays true.
Now this was some good stuff. Delicate and jasmine-y. The 'two heaping spoonfulls' advice was also accurate.
I just don't like flavored teas, no matter how hard I try.
This is a light and aromatic jasmine tea. Very good.
This tea is definitely my all rime favorite and will probably be gone sooner than I want. The Jasmine flavor is lighter than the jasmine phoenix pearls, which I also love, but still gives the delicious taste of full-bodied jasmine. I definitely recommend this tea for anyone who likes jasmine tea and is looking for a lighter variety.
This tea has a beautiful jasmine flavor and is so nice in the morning -- or for that matter any time.
I love jasmine tea, and this one is really wonderful. It's a bonus that you can steep it twice, or even three times, but even if you couldn't, it would still be worth the price. This particular tea from Adagio is easily one of my favorite teas of all time.
I don't usually like jasmine tea, but I LOVED this. I first tried it in the white tea sampler and knew I had to have a full order of it. This is perfect for when I get home from work at night. It's light and sweet and it smells amazing. This is one that I'll keep in stock.
this one was so awesome. Very light and fragrant...drank it all day long and felt so relaxed
I love the Jasmine in this tea. I'm not big on flowery scents or tastes but this tea to me is smooth, subtle and just right. I bought a sample and I will be reordering more.
Very good mild tea. Was a little surprised that it was so light in color.
This has quickly become my favorite tea to drink, ever! I love the lightness of the silver needle, but the aroma from the jasmine is simply amazing. Absolutely calming and a beautifully refreshing cup of tea.
I decided to try white tea for the first time, and went for this one based on the reviews. To start with, the recommended amount is two heaping tsp per cup, so I certainly hope it's resteepable. I steeped for 5 minutes at the recommended temp. It tasted a bit grassier than expected. There's a flavor in here I dislike. I'm fairly sure it's not the jasmine, because I'm in love with the jasmine phoenix pearls. I had to add a lot of sugar to get it drinkable, but with that and a touch of creamer, it tasted all right. Not great, but all right.
And then, because I wasn't drinking very fast, it got cold. To my own surprise, that amped it up to pretty tasty! I might use the rest to make an iced brew, but I am very unlikely to buy this again.
First time ordering white tea and Jasmine tea. Not sure why I love it but I do. It definitely has a (for lack of a proper term) floral taste so if it is not your thing don't go for it. I happen to love it though. Very relaxing :)
Good though jasmine often overpowered the needles.
I love this tea when I need something to sip on but am already over-caffeinated. While I will never understand how some folks don't care for jasmine, I will concede that you have to be a fan of it as it comes on strong in this tea.
This is one of my favorite white teas. The tea leaves themselves are very fragrant and after brewing, the taste is delicate and refreshing. Since this is a white tea there's very little to no caffeine so I find it very relaxing.
I love this tea. First that it's a white tea and second I love love love the flavor of Jasmine.
Exactly what a jasmine white tea should be: light and delicious!
This is a lovely, mellow jasmine that is light on caffeine and relaxing to drink in the afternoon hours. It needs to be carefully brewed, however, as even slightly too hot or too long will have a hugely-negative impact on the flavor. Keep it to 2 minutes, and err on the side of warm instead of hot and you will be very happy with the results.
