this tea is amazingly smooth! not bitter the way green tea can be, with a perfect jasmine flavor. i will go back to this one again and again.
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.

Wonderful introduction to white tea. I wasn't so sure about the jasmine flavor at first--thought it might be overpowering--but I came to really enjoy it. Very relaxing stuff
This tea is delicate and soothing, great when you are relaxing.
I love this tea at the end of the day - it kind of has an earthy jasmine flavor without being perfumy, and is really easy to brew with none of the astringency that you get in some of the green jasmine teas. I wish it were not so pricey but I do love it!
A very calming tea. It has the taste of silver needle, but with an extra oomph.
This is one of the best green teas. The first day i tried it at work all my coleagues asked what smells so good. Everyone wanted to try it
Most Excellent. I have always loved jasmine, and the silver needle is a high quality delicious tea.
Yum yum yum yum. Got the sample and now I want more. It's so good. Such a unique taste. Love the jasmine in this blend. Please get the big bag back in stock soon!
Loved this tea. Will definitely be added to my favorites. :)
JASMINE TEA IS WHAT GOT MY STARTED ON MY LOVE OF ALL THINGS TEA! I LOVE THIS ONE!
I had some really great Jasmine tea while I was in Japan this year and this tastes just as good. The aftertaste is the best part. Absolutely great light flavor. Very relaxing... My new Favorite...
This is the first tea I drink that leaves my breath smelling like flowers, and I'm a flower-lover. My first jasmine tea was from a bakery in Chelsea Market in NYC, and I fell in love instantly. I had to buy some for myself! It creates a relaxing sensation, smell and taste. It's perfect for someone like me!
Not bad. I prefer the regular silver needle to this. Not a huge fan of the floral taste but it was worth a try.
The best white tea I have tasted. It has slightly floral notes
I have ordered this before, and am ordering it again. This white jasmine tea really brings something special to the table and is unique from the typical green jasmine tea (and I daresay it is a great white jasmine tea unto itself!) This tea is a very contemplative one, with a full taste but none of the bold, direct flavor of many jasmine teas. great in the morning or evening. my only regret is that I cannot ever steep this tea more than 2x
I have tried many a Jasmine Tea, but in my opinion NONE have compared to the Jasmine Silver Needle. For example, Dragon Pheonix Pearls are good, but the Jasmine scented Silver Needles take home the gold medal! The base tea is just soo smooth and sweet, combined with the Jasmine it forms what could only be called a nectar. It's as if you had gone out and plucked the most fragrant, beautiful flower and filled your mouth with its wonderfully pungent nectar. At the very least get a sample and give it a try!
How lovely to have a white tea jasmine! I drink jasmine tea every night before bed, and it's nice to have one that doesn't keep me up. Lovely, delicate flavor, soft undertone.
I absolutely love this tea! It is subtle yet so delicious! Definitely recommend especially if you're new to white tea.
Slightly sweet, and very subtle. Lovely for evenings!
I decided to try an Adagio white tea after a client made me my first cup of white tea (ever) at her home. I ordered the sample size Jasmine Silver Needle, not certain I would love it. It was superb! Now I am looking forward to the 8 oz. bag I just ordered. This might replace the Vanilla Roobios as my official favorite. Thank you, Susie
I made this in a gaiwan style cup and it was a perfect few cups of tea. Didn't need to use a whole lot of the tea, got several strong infusions. The tea itself is extremely aromatic and has a great light, floral taste.
This tea is a very subtle, but very delicious white tea. After the first taste, you can just sit back and relax while enjoying the delicious flavor.
A nice light, fresh flavor for afternoon tea time!
The first batch I ordered of this tea was phenomenal. The jasmine combined with the silver needle to have this beautifully fresh and mild flavor. The aroma when I opened the bag was intoxicating. However, the next bag I ordered was god awful. It had this old rotten smell and taste to it. I'm really hoping I just received a bad batch because this was my favorite tea. I'm hesitant to order another bag of this now, but I don't want the last bag to ruin my experience of this excellent tea.
My favorite jasmine tea. A lighter flavor than normal green jasmine tea, and lighter caffeine (!) Perfect for any time of day, refreshing iced (although it's hard to get a strong flavor out of it). Very good lightly sweetened.
A soft, sweet tea. Love the smell! Can't usually resteep more than once, but that's all right.
Great Idea to team up Silver Needle with jasmine. The taste is definitely a bit smoother than jasmine green tea and the delicate nature of the Silver Needle is not overtaken by the light jasmine. Great fragrance as well coming off the tea
I love jasmine and I love mild teas, but this one is so very mild that it's almost tasteless. I probably won't buy it again.
Amazing white tea! Smells much more fragrant than the taste, which is good. The Jasmine is very subtle so you can still taste the white tea. Very smooth.
This is an amazing tea. I loved it. My roommate and I had it, and his first exclamation was that we had to get more. Very light flavor, reminds me of honeysuckle. It was sweet enough that I didn't need to add anything to it. A great tea, and I will be buying more.
Great version of silver needle! For jasmine lovers this is sure to please. My girlfriend prefers this to silver needle without the jasmine, I prefer the plain silver needle, but this is still an excellent tea. Steeped 2.4g of tea in 160-170 degree water for 3-5 minutes.
Excellent tea. Very similar to the regular phoenix pearl jasmine tea, but lighter body due to the white tea instead of oolong base.
I thought this was a nice white green. Probably not for everyone due to the jasmine component but if you like jasmine teas this is a nice option. Smooth and I didn't find it to be too bitter. If not a jasmine fan the regular green needle is a nice tea as well.
Im a big fan of jasmine, and I was looking for somethig less expensive than the Jasmine Phoenix pearls one. This was great but my favorite still is the first one.
This is, unfortunately, not my favorite tea by far. It's too delicate and ends up being jasmine-water for me. I will be passing it on to someone who will appreciate it more.
A good jasmine flavor that is delicate and not overpowering like some jasmines.
Light, lightly sweet, floral white tea. Just the right amount of jasmine without being overwhelming. Even got 2 steepings out of it, still with a hint of jasmine in the second cup.
After learning about the health benefits of white tea, I've been drinking this before my runs and races. It has a wonderful light taste that is perfect in the mornings and keeps me hydrated for my morning workouts!
Perfect white jasmine tea. Absolute heaven in a cup.
Not super special, but a very nice mild tea. I preferred this hot rather than iced.
Delicious jasmine tea, light and floral. Only problem was user error, when trying to clean dried leaves out of my infuser I managed to ram one 'needle' under my fingernail... ouch!
This is quite possibly the best tea that I've ever bought and prepared myself. It is expensive but you can get several good brews out of the same leaves.
I loved this tea - the Jasmine wasn't too strong, it was just enough to give the tea a great flavor!
I'd never had a looseleaf white tea before, and so this piqued my curiosity. I can't compare it to other whites, but I nonetheless love the stuff, and will probably buy more in the future. It's got the lightest taste, and actually works very well to cleanse the palate.
I like a cleaner silver needle, but this isn't bad for the price, plus I love the taste of the jasmine.
I thought regular Silver Needle was good. With Jasmine, it's fantastic. The delicate flavors compliment each other very well, slightly grassy and slightly floral but neither flavor is overwhelming. Perfectly balanced. I think this will be a staple.
The jasmine is a tad too much for me in terms of scent, but when as a drink it is much more subtle. It smells like you will have a cup of perfum, that is how intense the jasmine scent is, but as a drink it is much more subtle. When I drink this, I feel truly like a lady drinking tea-- it is a very delicate tea.
Probably the best jasmine tea I've tried. A lot of the time the jasmine is so overwhelming. This has good balance though. The flavors are so rich and complex while remaining delicate and mellow at the same time. Absolutely exquisite! I like mine with a touch of sweetener to bring out the jasmine even more. It's such a treat!
I like this, although I think there are better Jasmine teas on Adagio. I like to get at least two cups out of my teaspoon of tea, but I think this can only get one good cup.
Delicious and very calming. This has become my go-to 'stressed out' tea.
