★★★★★

This is a wonderful tea. I love darjeeling in general, but the white leaf is super smooth. I enjoy it immensely.

★★★★★

This is a very light but delicious tea. The champagne of teas will only do when you want
something different and memorable but not pungent.

Very good white tea. Really smooth, almost creamy taste.

Such an interesting tea. I tried this in a sample years ago and have wanted more ever since but held back due to the price. Finally decided to splurge on a larger amount and it's definitely worth it. The muscatel grape flavor really comes through beautifully. It's a cup to slowly appreciate on a day where you have time to re-brew it and thoughtfully enjoy.

This tea was not at all what I expected. It was not light-tasting like other white teas are, and it tasted bitter even though I steeped according to the directions. Will probably not purchase this one again.

Absolutely love this tea. It's a great tea for the afternoon and is packed with layers of different flavors. High floral and light fruity notes cover your mouth and tapers off with a nice creamy mouth feel. I wouldn't exactly agree that this is a crisp flavored tea.

I am starting to realize I am a white tea kind of girl. This one specific white is good and smooth. I can't stop drinking it.

If you want a white tea with a stronger flavor, this would be a prime choice! It has an almost black-tea-like astringency to it, which is not my favorite as I tend to favor whites and greens over black teas. However, it wasn't bad overall and I definitely won't have a problem finishing my sample!

This was an interesting tea. Tasted of a far away country where things are different and exotic.

The taste of Darjeeling without the Caffeine. Convenient for taking to work

This tea grows on you it’s not as mild as other white teas but the more you sip it the more you realize how much flavor it actually has

Very mild and would probably be better cold brewed.

This was highly recommended at my local shop, and well deservedly. I like the bolder yet smooth taste and fragrant bouquet.

Very nice, flowery expression of Darjeeling. I like white teas and Darjeeling very much, so this is a win. Use lots of tea leaves to make a great cup.

One of my absolute favorite adagio teas. A slightly, slightly heavier white tea, with a hint of darjeeling peppery-ness

★★★☆☆

This was an all right tea, but honestly, it feels a little too 'in between' white and darjeeling teas. If I want darjeeling, I want weird, funky, earthy flavors. If I want white tea, I want delicate, floral, flavors with that wonderful soil-tinged mouthfeel. This tea just ends up being mediocre at both.

Really like this white tea. Smooth and light, perfect for a cool winter morning.

★★★★☆

Like most white teas, it has a subtle flavor that is only highlighted if you add a sweetener to it. Had a nice floral taste that actually made me want more. I liked it.

★★★★☆

Not bad. It seemed like a pretty basic white to me, really. I wasn't getting much of the darjeeling, but maybe more of the complexities will come out the more I drink it.

The last time I bought this tea more than 4 years ago and then it was unavailable for a long time. This version is still good but not as strong as the previous one so I use a lot of tea to amplify the flavor.

This is a very delicate tea. I found it hard to get a ton of flavor from the leaves, but still enjoyed it overall.

An instant favorite! This tea, in my opinion, is naturally sweet with hints of grass and fruit. It's refreshing!

First, I'm new to this tea thing. I love this tea. It has the character of darjeeling without its harshness. I often combine it with a fruity infusion, such as peach.

The flower taste is perfect in this tea! It is so delightful and makes a perfect morning tea.

I have this every morning. Easy on the stomach, flavorful and sweet smelling. I have shared with friends who stated they would order some. I hope they did!

Light and airy, and it doesn't caffeinate you up OR leave your mouth feeling weird if you drink it before bed? Delightful. It's a much sharper, more aggressive taste than something like a silver needle. Whether that's positive or negative is entirely a matter of taste. A very good tea if you want tea but shouldn't drink tea.

My favorite white tea. My roommate is neither a white tea nor Darjeeling fan, and she adored this when we tested a new kettle with this. It's a match made in tea heaven.

About as subtle as subtle whites get, and that's saying something. Not worth the money for my palate. White Symphony is far superior.

I liked the flavor much more than other traditional white teas. It is mild but very flavorful with a muscatrl aroma distinctive of darjeeling tea.

It was a good sample, but didn't have a lot of flavor. I will have to try it again to really determine if I like it.

I got a sample of this tea and really enjoyed the body of this tea. I'm just getting into the white teas and liked the softness of it.

This is my first loose leaf white tea, also my first unflavored white tea. It's very good, mild, balanced...

Very lovely floral flavor with this tea. I did not expect this tea to have so much flavor but it is packed with it!

Interesting malty flavor, requiring lots of space to steep. Great darjeeling flavor with a brightness not found in the black variant. Overall a great tea, but not really my daily cuppa due to its lack of inherent sweetness.

Has a very light Smokey flavor with a suddle sweetness definitely a good choice for tea drinkers with a light pallet

Very very subtle and distinctively Darjeeling but in a completely new way. A must-try for Darjeeling lovers!

I had never had white darjeeling before, and I'm glad I tried it. This tea was light and refreshing. I also used some to brew kombucha, and while delicious, the acidity easily overpowered the subtle flavors that make this tea special. I recommend drinking it fresh rather than fermenting it.

This one is good but not spectacular. I do like darjeeling teas and white teas but this just wasn't as good as I hoped for.
