This is a fun tea. I easily got two cups out of one pearl. Next time I will use a tea pot.
These lovely pearls are made from white peony leaves that are hand-shaped. Once steeped, the cup reveals classic white peony notes of melon and cucumber, a little mineral flintiness and just a hint of honey.

This tea is way too subtle for my palate. I over steeped it some, but even so there wasn’t a whole lot of flavor. I liked it for what it was, but I don’t think it’ll ever be my go to choice. I’m finding I’m drawn to bolder yet fairly complex blends. There is some subtle complexity here just not bold enough for me.
I'm obsessed with this tea!! I drink it out of a teapot at work and I usually get 2-3 steepings out of one 'pearl.' The flavor is mild but complex. I tend to forget to pull the tea steeper out of the pot while I'm drinking and I appreciate that this can steep pretty much forever without getting bitter. This is truly my favorite tea of all time.
Delicious the best jasmine tea I ve ever had, will be my next one
Enjoyed the taste, and lasting flavor these provided.
Love these. A surprisingly good pur eh. Great for a pot of tea.
First time trying pearls and they were a fun way to enjoy my tea! 2nd and 3rd pot are the best, with a delicate almost hay like sweet flavor.
I didn't like the taste of this tea. It just tasted stale.
I guess if you like plain teas it's probably very good, just not for me. I'm so glad I tried it though. I'm in the learning stages of Tea Tasting and I have learned that I do not care for plain teas. My neighbor however likes it very much. Gifted her the rest of my sample.
Taste is not too strong, but it is pleasing. I enjoyed it with a sweet pastry.
An excellent white tea. Nice and light with a slight fruitiness. The only problem with the pearls is they are large making 32oz (4 cups) per pearl.
The taste of these is wonderful and I love the convenience of just using one pearl vs loose tea at times. Can steep multiple times.
What a classic type of tea. White, subtle, and beautiful
I enjoyed these, but they were very large and floated to the surface when I tried to brew them. When I put a tea strainer over a pearl it unfurled nicely, but without doing that the tea was weak.
Makes a fantastic nighttime tea. Very light but not lacking in flavor. A small bit of honey really helps this tea pop.
A whole pearl (steeped in 16 oz water) is way too sweet. Halving the pearl makes a tea that is drinkable, but it loses its complexity. The honey flavor is lovely, though, and the tea is cheap, so I will probably buy it again.
One of my new favorites. It only takes one pearl for the ingenuiTEA mug. So, the 4 oz bag goes a long way. Has a great flavor. Bit of a mineral aftertaste, but you'll still go back quickly for another sip.
pretty good. Add it to my herbal teas to give them caffeine.
Love these! They're a great subsitute for silver yen zin pearls from Teavana.
I love this tea! It s awesome definitely give this one a go!
Very mild, and easily drinkable tea. I like putting one of these in a filter and putting it in a 32 Nalgene water bottle with cold water. You can even get a couple refills out of this if you like a weaker tea.
This is now my favorite tea. It is is light and refreshing. Very much like jasmine which is usually a green tea but this is a white tea. I have reused the leaves several times for just as good of a cup the 2nd time and 3rd time.
More bitter than I anticipated but I eventually got used to it. I may be steeping the tea for too long...
This tea was reminiscent of a light green tea I had in Chinatown. It wasn t too heavy on the palate and paired well with our Dim Sum.
Mild but not weak flavor with a smooth finish. Definitely recommend.
I love these White Tea Pearls! Very light and flavorful, especially when iced with a little bit of honey to sweeten it as well.
This has a very mild jasmine taste, I think I have to try it again to determine whether I like it or not.
Absolutely delicious. Very mild and I can get approximately 8-10 cups from one pearl. I bought this on a whim and it might be one of my new favorites.
The tea comes in very large balls that make the tea too concentrated. Otherwise not bad.
Very good white tea. Subtle and delicious!!! Thanks!!
These balls are way bigger than I expected and last at least 4 steapings
What an awesome smooth tea. Makes a great base for other flavors or by itself.
A good tea, but it just doesn't have enough tea flavor for my personal tastes. Still it is a beautiful thing to watch the pearl unfurl.
These are great for when company comes over, just throw one in a teapot and be done. Ta is mild and tastes good with a light honey.
Definatelt the BEST white tea I have ever tasted. Needs no milk or sweetener. I am in love!!
These were a lot of fun. Normally I don't remove the cozy from my teapot, but I wanted to watch the pearl bloom. For a white, it was remarkably toasty, but like in a good sugar-cookie or tea biscuit kind of way. I got 4 steeps out of it, and could honestly probably have gotten more, but I felt like 4 pots of tea in one day was probably enough.
This tea has a light flavor perfect for an evening cup of tea. The flavor will not conflict with a dessert.
I love keeping these around at work. It takes all th measurement work out of tea-making, and you get a lovely, re-steepable cup of sweet white tea.
The first white tea I've really tried, I was expecting it to have little flavor. I would describe the flavor as 'light', but definitely not lacking. It's sweet and silky smooth.
Amazing. I got so many wonderful cups of tea from each pearl. The first few were floral and reminded me of jasmine tea. The later cups were more honey.
this was my first white tea, very good taste I was able to use leaves 4 times
Hints of melon and minerals for sure with a bit of a honey aftertaste but overall not a pleaser.
I steep these pearls over and over and over again. The flavor remains the same and I cannot complain whatsoever. Sweet without being too sweet, very lightly floral, and resembles a clean, non-astringent flavored green tea. These are also perfect to pop in the tea pop for friends who aren't too experienced with loose leaf tea.
I bought this for a friend. He said they were great! Now I've got to try it!
I LOVED these pearls. The tea was brilliant and clear with a pleasant white tea flavor. my only area of criticism is that they do not soften and open up by the time the steep is over... I feel like the pearls should be a little smaller to get the full steeping power of this beautiful white tea.
Extremely fragrant with a smooth, sweet taste. Great for people looking to ease into tea from more sugary drinks.
Smells really light and tasty. The sample is a good size to split between myself and a friend for a gift.
Light, delicate and refreshing with a sweet honey aftertaste. One of my absolute favorite Adagio teas.
I am in heaven! These are fabulous. Throw them into my Libre Infuser, add water, and I'm set for a good morning or afternoon of sweet smooth tea loving! The tea has bright pops of sweetness with an underlying of floral and a pinch of nuttiness here and there.
WOW! The best white tea I have ever had. I love how it unwraps itself in the infuser. This is my go to tea at night, very mild but rich flavor.
