This is a light, sweet, flavorful blend. I prefer this for when I make tea at work - I find those cafeteria-style hot water spouts, in most cases, are a perfect temperature for this tea. I use a bigger scoop if in a filter bag and add a little cool water before removing it.
Beautifully light and fruity. I love the hints of rose and apple that peek through. I know the recommended steep time is 3 minutes but I find 5 to be perfect for me, as 3 leaves it too light for my tastes sometimes. A wonderful springtime blend!
There are far more ingredients than there is flavor in this blend. It's a little earthy but not in a bad way. The strongest flavor is of melon, which probably comes from the mango. I didn't really notice the pineapple or other flavors that much. I tried it twice to give it the benefit of the doubt, but it was just kind of meh.
Very fruity and refreshing white tea. I steeped it a little longer and it really brought out the flavors more. Enjoyed immensely in the afternoon.
Absolutely delightful, fresh tasting tea. Has a bit of a strong blueberry flavor, but a very and refreshing tea. Also makes an excellent mixing tea!
Good tea, very light and fruity tasting. I would recommend it
Herbal and soft to drink, i only try on water i don’t know if can be good on milk because has strong flavor
Tried this as a sample and fell in love with it. I've been looking for a new morning tea, and I think I found it!
A sharp tanginess that comes through great from a nicely pink-colored cold brew, it was the best of the four spring teas I tried.
I bought a sample of this and was happy I did. I enjoyed it after dinner hot. The berry flavor is a pleasant balance with the delicacy of the white tea.
I really liked this mix. It's both fruity and floral and neither are overpowering. It was great cold brewed too.
This was meant for a gift for a good friend of mines and I’ve accidentally ordered a bigger size. But hey it meant I get to enjoy the tea too. And it’s so delicious!
A daily tea for me, after 9 years it still is interesting. And the blend remains consistent!
Soft caffeine hit with a multi-layered flavor profile. Sweet, fruity gives way to delicate white tea taste. Really lovely.
This is possibly my very favorite white tea. An absolutely lovely blend that is light and sweet and perfect for a cold day.
กลิ่นน่ารักกกก เหมือนเป็นขั้วตรงข้ามกับ fuzzy ตัวนั้นจะสดชื่นส้ม แต่ตัวนี้ออกหวาน ๆ ซ่อนเปรี้ยว ละมุนมากกว่า ชอบทั้งคู่
I always adore this blend when I pick it up or get it as a gift. It has the most beautiful floral-fruits flavor to the delicate white tea it comes with. Definitely one of my favorites.
This tea is much more fruity and less floral than expected. I prefer unflavored green or white teas, of floral ones. This tea is not bad, but might be better iced.
This is light and floral with a lovely flavor. Even the bag is pretty. The caffeine is mild enough that I can have this at 4:00 pm
This tea was just ok. There wasn’t a particular fruity flavor that stood out to me. The Dolores and flavors made it look more desirable
There is very little flavor in this one. I can catch whispers of strawberry and apple. This one fell flat for me. I should note that it is still drinkable, it isn’t so awful that I’d pour it out. Stronger flavors are more desirable for me. Other white teas knock it out of the park, not this one.
I Love this tea. I am new to the tea community. So far this is one of my favorites. Refreshing, light and I do not get jittery.
I like this blend a lot, but it doesn’t feel like spring to me with the mango and pineapple - isn’t that more of a summer tea? I should try this again in April or May and see if it works better for late spring. I think I was expecting more tart berries and herbs. But putting aside my nitpicking over the name and fruits, it’s a light and refreshing tea that I could see myself enjoying all summer long.
This was a delightful iced tea! I really enjoyed the unique refreshing fruity flavors that came through in layers. This blend has a lot of flavor for a white tea, but is still so light and naturally sweet. I drank this all day in my to-go tumbler and enjoyed every sip of pineapple-mango-blueberry-apple-iciousness! I detected the perfect rose enchantment in my cup. This tea blend does not have an offensive overpowering rose flavor, but contains the gentle kiss by a rose in the Spring. I love this tea and plan to keep it in my tea stock! Great blend, Adagio! 3 min @180
This is a wonderful tea. Light and refreshing with strawberry forward and slight tangy astringency. I’m sure it would be good iced, but I couldn’t wait and drank it all hot.
Allergen for me so had a guest taster. Taster thought the tea was good. It had a good mix of flavors that blended well together - nothing overpowered the other flavors.
It smells amazing and it tastes just the same –– slightly less, however, very delicious.
When I opened my CommuniTea packet, I noted the bright, fruity aromas of the pineapple, mango, apples, cranberry, and hibiscus pieces. I steeped the tea for 3 minutes, producing a light yellow cup of tea. The flavor of the tea is light, yet complex. It is a delicious balance of the fruit flavors, along with a hint of floral notes from the rose petals!
A fruity tea that has breezes of each flavour in it. None particularly overpower, but seem to come and go individually with each sip. Had the tiniest hints of pineapple occasionally. As it cooled, the hibiscus was more present, and had more of a floral note than the initial fruity warmth. A light tea that has a stronger smell than taste, but still pleasant.
This one was a pleasant surprise! I usually have bad luck with white teas, but this was delicious from start to finish. Hot or cold, both good outcomes. It's delicate in flavor, but in the best way.
Oh my this is a beautiful tea. Great now and for iced tea as well. Adding this one to my monthly shipment.
This was good as a cold brewed tea. The flavors all mixed together but pineapple was one that stood out. It would be better as a spring/summer tea instead of a cold January day.
The flavor is well rounded with a light fruity flavor. I liked it even with no sugar. I was worried at first that I had let it steep too long because I don't do white tea very often, but it turned out fine.
I was hesitant about this as I’ve not had great experiences with teas containing rose hips and hibiscus but I was pleasantly surprised by a light fruit flavor and NO tartness. I am very pleased with this.
Not usually a big fan of fruity teas--or pineapple!--so entered into this with some trepidation. The Communitea experience pushes you out of your comfort zone and sometimes it surprises you! Upon opening a sweet, floral, and fruity aroma burst from the packet. Even more worried, I steeped per instructions. To my surprise the rosy-hued result was far more subtle than the aroma suggested. It was sweet, delicate, and honeyed on the tongue, rather than overwhelming. As for the pineapple I caught a faint taste but it was very faint and just added to the overall sweet impression. Thing this would be excellent iced in the summer, and it definitely brought a whiff of spring to this rainy winter day.
White Eternal Spring is my fave from the Spring Teas sampler, so I had to order some! I drink it iced-- plain, with a little honey, or with a little bit of lemonade (makes a rose/berry lemonade!). I usually make two hot steeps from the leaves and mix them together. It also cold brews well (but it was only ok warm). This tea reminds me just a little bit of the White Blueberry, but tastes almost more herbal than fruity. The floral notes are more of an herbal floral than a perfume-y floral. It really does taste like Spring to me! (1-2 HEAPING tsps/ 8oz cup -- 3 mins @180º)
UPDATE - This tea is also delicious in blends. So far I've tried it with raspberry green and with white blueberry, and both of those were nice warm and iced. I'd like to try it with calypso green, too, per another reviewers rec!
A lovely, fruity white tea. The floral here balances out nicely. Often, a white tea will smell heavily of fruit, but the flavor doesn't hold up. In this tea, it does! I'm not a fan of hibiscus tartness, but it's a nice player that rounds out this blend, rather than dominating it.
I struggled with whether to leave 5 stars or 4. I left 4 because the tea didn't wow me but it was good. Aroma right out of the packet was heavenly! The contents were pretty. This is a special looking tea. I followed packet steeping instructions. Result was a pleasant flavor that was a bit underwhelming compared with the scent. I'd drink it again but I'm not loading it in my cart to purchase yet.
I really enjoyed this tea. It had a very nice, fruity flavor that reminded me of a strawberry daiquiri. It was a nice, mild tea, that was only enhanced with a bit of rock sugar.
I really enjoyed White Eternal Spring. It's a flavor profile I gravitate towards. The fruit and floral were balanced and not overpowering. I drank it hot-ish, I pulled my water too soon and the temp was only 165. Perfectly lovely but may have softened the full flavor.
Question - how do you achieve the correct water temp? I know it's boiling or not. This time I pulled the water before boiling and when I took the temp it was 165... do you typically let the water boil, and when it cools to 180 start the steep?
I think every time theres more than one fruit in something, my brain jumps straight to 'oh this smells like fruit punch'. That aside, the mango really stood out to me. It was a nice blend.
Not a white tea fan. Smelled good when I opened the package, but after steeping, hardly any flavor at all. I can taste that there are supposed to be flavors, but they don't really come through. Tasted as part of The CommuniTea.
scent is much bolder/more fruity than taste. Flavor delicate and subtle (mostly jasmine and pear? but very light?) and different than other teas for me.I prefer bolder flavors but it's nice.
The white eternal spring tea is one of my favorites so far. The aroma is a beautiful fruity scent that smells like spring. I am not very familiar with white teas, but this made me want to broaden my horizons. I truly enjoyed this cup of tea.
I am not a fan of white tea as I usually find it to be too week for my taste. Having said that, I quite enjoyed this tea. It was very fragrant and fruity in the packet and brewed up a darker tea than most other white teas that I have tried. The fruit and rose flavors really stood out in the cup.
An above average but not great, floral, light tea. I get the rose, and some fruit--perhaps berries and white grapefruit. A lot is going on here but a tad too light for me.
Enjoyed this tea hot, but it seems suitable for being iced as well. It's fruity and not overly floral, so it was a welcome reminder that the grey of winter will not last forever.
I was really looking forward to this tea as part of my CommuniTEA today. It smelled lovely! However, the taste was a bit muted for me and the finish was not for me. This definitely is a good tea - just not my preferred type.
In the bag: The roughly chopped forest green leaves of the white tea is the main ingredient. Several large rose petals and rose hips are along for the ride. Two apple pieces and a pair of pineapple hunks.
On the nose (pre-steep): Fragrant fruits hold the center of this garden, combined with floral notes. Rose stands out in particular. A mild sugar resides beneath.
On the nose (post-steep): Same scent as pre-steep, just milder. Also, the sugar undertone is nearly gone.
On the tongue (pre-sweetener): Flavor is very delicate - if you don't pay attention it can pass you by. Light floral notes are not quite as fruity as on the nose. The taste of white tea shines through. Rose is still distinct. No bitterness.
On the tongue (post-sweetener): The rose and fruit flavors are a tad more pronounced.
Opinion: A lovely tea ideal for delicate palates. Quite a difference from the Irish Breakfast that ComminiTEA had yesterday. The rose served as a pleasing centerpiece.
Preparation: 3 min @ 185 ℉, ½ tsp monk fruit sweetener
I’m not normally a fan of white tea, but as I am recovering from food poisoning, I’m using this as an Oporto it’s to reevaluate that stance.
This was a great tea to do that with. I agree with some other reviews that there is almost a fruity bubblegum aroma and flavor to this tea, sort of like the fruit stripes gum of my youth. This tea is gentle and fragrant, with the flavor of sweet strawberry and blueberry peeking through and a faint aroma of rose or peony.
A lovely cup when you want something easy or when you’re hoping for brighter days.
Update 1/3/22 I will admit that I am now adding just a little bit of agave nectar to this tea. It is probably my favorite white tea!
Previous review: Now this is the kind of white tea that I like! Delicate fruit aromas and tastes that are perfect for early spring. I couldn’t see some of the fruit pieces but I tasted a perfectly delicate fruit salad in every sip! I grabbed up a small bag for my stash. I steeped about 10 ounces of water at 180 degrees for 3 minutes and added no sweetener.
