This was my first white tea and I love it. A very light but great taste with every sip. I simply add honey to the mix and it's perfect for me.
White tea from Fujian, China. White Peony, also known as Pai Mu Tan, is a sweet, mild tea made from unopened tea buds, as well as the two newest leaves to sprout. Warm and floral like fruit blossoms. Golden liquor, succulent floral-fruit flavor.

I like this tea alot. I bought it for my granddaughter so we can drink tea together.
Great tea for those who doesn't like the strong taste of green tea.
This is a lovely, delicate tea. The flavor is very mild. I am not much for a really strong tea and this is just right. I do mix it with green teas if I want a little more body to it. Highly recommeded.
To my unrefined palate, this tastes the same as Silver Needle- light, smooth, and delicious- without costing a small fortune.
This tea is a very smooth tasting tea if you don't over heat the water. A keeper for sure.
I love this tea! Nice light flavor, ever so slightly sweet. Just as good as Silver Needle in my opinion.
The dry tea starts with a mix of full and broken leaves with a fresh scent. This is a nice light and smooth white tea that is good even after the second steeping.
Nice white tea; pleasant taste and not too strong.
This is my everyday white tea. I drink it mainly at night before I go to bed. An excellent, smooth tea!
I love this tea! Perfect for the time when you want something hot to drink without a ton of caffeine or a bold flavor. Nice light taste perfect for any time.
Like other reviewers have said, this is a fabulous (cheaper) substitute for Silver Needle. Of course, it's not Silver Needle, but for the price, it's close enough.
My favorite white tea, a nice subtle flavor, easy to drink.
Not as subtle as silver needle, but not as distinctive as white darjeeling.
I don't think I steeped the tea long enough for the right taste, but it still taste good.
This is my favorite white tea! Affordable, delicate & just what the Dr. ordered! I always keep some on hand to boost my family's immune system during cold season.
Tastes especially good with fruit flavors--orange, peach or fruit medley.
The cheaper, less complex cousin of Silver Needle. Good for those, like me, who love Silver Needle but are on a budget.
This was my very first white tea and it wasn't at all what I was expecting. When I opened the tin it smelled like spinach, or green vegetables. It didn't taste as strong as it smelled, and it was actually very smooth. I added a touch of honey and it tasted lovely. My only disappointment was that it wasn't as floral tasting as I thought it would be.
The is a lovely mild white tea, not bitter, no taste of smoke or fermentation. I use it to mix with fruit blends in order to get the antioxidants of real tea w/o an overpowering taste.
I have tried doing three different infusions and it gets better and better. It is the sauvignon blanc of tea. You will probably taste hints of white wine and berry and depending on the infusion, possibly even a little lemongrass
It is a good white tea, but I wish it had a bit more flavor. Sometimes I mix in herbal tea for more interest.
Smooth and light. I'm new to White tea and this is perfect for those new to white tea.
Very subtle taste and one of my fallback teas. Always reliable and fresh.
My first white tea. Delicate and subtly sweet. Yum.
Pretty good. Be sure to let the water cool and not to overbrew. If it's too hot it gets a soapy taste to it.
Overall pretty satisfied with it, though not enough to get it again. Be sure to use a teaspoon extra, if that's how you measure it, to make up for the volume of the leaves.
I was suprised at how much I enjoyed this tea. It was a wonderful flavor.
This was my first white tea and it brewed up fine and dandy. I just don't think I like white tea. There's something that doesn't taste fully developed with it.
My favorite white tea. It costs less than other whites, and has a very smooth flavor.
A very florid kind of tea. Very subtle, but has plenty of depth to enjoy.
First white tea I've tried. It tasted too weak for me, but I think that's just my preferance in tea.
still my favorite of the white teas! slightly sweet aftertaste but not overpowering or flowery.
A fantastic white tea. Slightly sweet, herbal, floral, delicate and very relaxing.
Most delicious. It can easily be an everyday tea.
Very light and clean tasting, a tiniest hint of veggatable after taste but not enough to ruin the subtle flavors.
Obviously not up to par with Silver Needle, but it's the next best white tea, in my opinion. Good white tea for the price.
Great simple white tea, I find it very similar to the Snowbud but a little stronger.
Very light, clean flavor. A great introduction to white teas.
This tea is subtle, but very good. It took me a few cups to really appreciate its depth. but I promise you, if you put the time in, you will not be dissapointed!
I ordered a batch of this after trying it when I received the White sampler. Nice affordable light tea.
My favorite white, perfection in a cup, lives up to the name of a favorite flower of this gardener guy!
White peony and white monkey are my favorite teas.
A light and not bitter white tea that tastes good.
The first white tea I've ever had, delicious. It has a very delicate taste so it's best to drink it by itself. I also think making it at 160-170 degrees worked better than 180. A great tea either way.
I bought a larger container of this after tasting it as part of the white tea sampler.
I found this tea to be very light and good to mix with other green teas.
Smooth, the taste can be compared to cream with green vegetables, and I mean that in the best way possible. A cheap alternative to Silver Needle, but when it comes to price and quality, I would say that White Peony is the better deal. Would definitely buy more in the near future.
just what you want from white tea--light and clean taste. great with fruit for a midday snack, or just by itself before bed.
Not bad white tea. Perfect cup for at the end of the day.
I would say silver needle is a little nicer, but this is very good too.
