Jasmine is probably my favorite flavor and white tea my favorite tea. Great combo.
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.

Jasmine is probably my favorite flavor and white tea my favorite tea. Great combo.
I love jasmine green tea, so I decided to try this, and I'm so glad I did! It's got a really nice flavor.
I'm usually not a huge fan of jasmine, but this tea made me a believer! You'll use a bit more leaf than you usually would because of the light leaves, but the aroma and the smooth taste are such a treat!
not my favorite, but my Mom is convinced it's the absolute best :-)
THIS TEA IS AWESOME! I'm a fan of anything jasmine, and this tea has qualified as the best yet! This is a great jasmine tea, beacause unlike jasmine #12 pearls, this has no hint of astringency(not that theres anything wrong with jasmine #12).
This was a really good tea. It's light, perfect for bedtime, and has an ideal amount of jasmine. Highly recommended.
The smell is what you notice first. The sweet scent of freshly picked flower is enticing to even the most reluctant tea drinker. The taste is initially very subtle, the flavor more or less coming form the aroma; however, it does leaves you with a very nice lingering sweet taste on the back of your taste buds. I would highly recommend this tea to both the experienced and new tea drinker.
The first few sips were okay as I inhaled the beautiful Jasmine scent. But after awhile this tea tasted like perfumed water and my stomach began to hurt. I drink 32 ounces of tea a day and after about 8 ounces of this tea I just couldn't drink any more. This would be fine if you were just drinking 1 cup of tea at a time.
My new favorite. The balance between jasmine and high quality white tea is perfect. I can't think of a tea that I'd rather drink before bed, either.
Great jasmine taste - very relaxing. Unfortunately, silver needle is so delicate that you really can't taste much of it when overpowered by the jasmine. I think I prefer a jasmine oolong, and my siver needle to stand on its own.
I have never been a fan of jasmine teas as the jasmine flavor is often to strong. I'd prefer it slightly midler yet, but the jasmine flavor in this tea is mellower than most jasmines.
this is good, but the jasmine taste isn't as strong as I'd like - I prefer other jasmine teas to this one, especially fujian jasmine pearl.
Best white tea available. Very light in flavor, and it is great to blend it with others.
This is a fabulous light tea. Aromatic and flavorful. If you love jasmine, you'll love this. I savor the experience each time I enjoy a cup (or a pot) of this fine tea!
It was pretty good, though I'll always prefer jasmine #12.
A delicious delicate jasmine flavor on this white. It's strong jasmine flavor, but not too perfumey.
Definitely not my favorite jasmine tea. Perhaps I just don't like white teas in general because I found the white tea taste to be too weak for my tastes, while the jasmine flavor seemed over-powering. Glad I ordered the sample.
This is a delicious jasmine tea. I'll often add some of this to a pot of green tea.
This tea is sublime! The jasmine is beautiful and the silver needle supplies a nice subtle background for it. The recommended steeping times worked out great for me. I'm trying to keep my husband, who loves jasmine tea, from discovering this one so he won't drink it all!
This is my favorite adagio tea, next to rooibos jasmine. The jasmine flavor is just strong enough, and I feel more relaxed every time I have a cup.
A very light tea that has a strong floral flavor. Definitely a tea to savor an share with close friends.
Absolutely the best jasmine tea I've tasted...well worth the price. Wonderful jasmine scent, light flavor and does not get overpowering.
This tea is amazing! - just like going to a country in Asian and asking for a fine cup of tea. It has a light taste, the young buds are beautiful when put in water, no broken leaves. So far, every cup has come out perfectly. I especially like the jasmine scent making the white tea a little more flavorful. This tea is really relaxing and I would recommend it to anyone!
First off, I'm a tea novice. White's are obviously lighter than greens or blacks. I tried the white sampler along the jasmine silver needle. I vastly prefered the jasmine silver needle versus anything else in the sampler. I imagine it has to do with the fact that there's just more flavor in it. So, if that's what you're looking for, this is the way to go. Floral and smooth. Jasmine is one of my favorite scents and this tea's go it in spades.
Wonderfully smooth. Not too subtle but the jasmine also doesn't overpower. My favorite jasmine tea so far.
Good, but you need to like jasmine - the taste is very strong.
I like jasmine in tea... and it goes especially well with the subtle taste of the silver needle. Adagio should offer more teas with jasmine.
This tea quickly grew on me. I didn't think I was a quite a jasmine fan, but this is a great twist on silver needle (which I love). Very clean, refreshing and requires no additives making it perfect when you want something light.
This was not my cup of tea, it smelled really good but it tasted like flowers too much which isnt what I like.
Jasmine tastes a little chemically to me, and yeah, this does. Not too bad though. My mom thought it was okay.
Mild flavor and expensive. Very good mixed with black dragon pearls.
This tea has a great Honey Suckle Jasmine smell to it. But the jasmine is a little bit overpowering. If the jasmine taste were pulled back a bit this would be a wonderfully aromatic cup of tea.
In general, I don't like white tea. I want to like it because it's soo good for you and doesn't stain your teeth as much, but most of it is too bland or too grassy for me. This tea, however, is delicious. It tastes very similar to jasmine green tea, but a little smoother.
I'm a sucker for jasmine and this is, so far, the only white tea I've really liked. The sweet subtle tea flavor really allows the jasmine to shine.
This tea's pairing of white tea and jasmine works well. I have not yet decided whether I prefer my jasmine with oolong or white tea. However, with silver needle's greater delicacy I find this works better on some occasions.
I don't know what to think about this one. Nice aroma but maybe it tastes too much jasmine ? I thought I was drinking perfume. However, some other people thought it was quite a good tea ! I wasn't impressed with the buds either.
I am normally a green tea drinker. This was my first taste of the whites and is hands down my favorite tea so far.
Not exactly sure what I was expecting, but being that this was the most money I have ever spent on tea, my expectations were pretty high. The tea was really good, but there was an ever so slight "chemical" after taste that I couldn't quite put my finger on. I brewed it in my ingenuitea steeper which did help to elevate the experience. The leaves are beautiful and I enjoyed watching the "fuzz" from the leaves slowly drop off and float down. Looking forward to round 2 with this tea now that my expectations are tempered.
Absolutely wonderful. I love silver needle and jasmine so I knew I would love this. It did not disappoint me one bit.
This is quickly becoming my favorite tea. I love anything jasmine, but adding silver needle put it over the edge. A truely WONDERFUL tea!!
If you like jasmine, you will love this tea. Nice light jasmine flavor. Seems a little lighter than rooibos jasmine, but they are both great teas.
Buttery, smooth as silk, and a great combination of jasmine and silver needle flavors. Delicious.
great tea, i liek to mix it with peppermint for a alming experience!
This is a very subtle taste but the fragrance is wonderful! I had to use a little more tea than I usually do when making a cup to get a stronger taste. All in all, very good, and you cannot beat the beautiful scent of jasmine that fills your nose!
My first experience with silver needle, and with jasmine. The first thing I noticed, of course, was the wonderful smell. I was worried that it might be like drinking perfume, but the taste is so sweet and mellow. Very nice to unwind with.
Delicious, smooth, sublime, the best jasmine variety I've ever tried. Not too perfumy, not astringent, very lovely.
Words fail me... this tea is uh-MAY-zing. Some teas smell great, others taste great, this one's got it all. Worth the $$$.
The special flavor of the jasmine is a favorite of mine. this is a great tea. try it!
Tasty and delicate, highly recommended to anyone that likes Jasmine.
A nice, light tea that has a subtle hint of jasmine flavor. The jasmine is not too overpowering and allows the white tea to come through.
