★★★☆☆
It was good, but it didn't pop like some of the other teas I ordered from Adagio Teas.
A delicate tea made from tea buds collected and withered prior to opening. It creates a pale yellow, light-bodied, yet complex cup with hints of honeydew and a faint floral sweetness.

A soothing floral tea. I was mindful of the temperature and steeping times, and didn't notice any particular aftertaste. Good for those new to drinking tea, as it's very mild.
So delicate and tasty, love to drink it while reading at night.
Amazing aroma and flavoring! It is as described and, with me not knowing other plants and their flavors, somewhat citrus scented and flavored. Absolutely love it!!! I get the benefit of great flavor and take deep breaths before sipping so it's aroma therapy as well.
This white tea was good but not my favorite. It had an unique after taste.
Nothing special here. Tastes like standard white tea. Personally I like the snowbud or silver needle, but this is decent too.
This was very sweet and nice. Not my favorite, but I would probably drink it again
I really enjoyed this. It was quite the symphony on the pallet.
The White Symphony is light, smooth and delicate, a cup to savor solo. I will definitely purchase again.
The only good thing I can say about this tea is that it mixes well with rich earthy teas. Unfortunately by itself it has such a unique flavor that it is seriously an acquired taste. I have tried this tea twice by itself, with and without sugar, and it has no redeeming qualities other than its aroma. It does mix extremely well with fruit medley if you are trying to make the tea less potent and fruity.
This is the first White Tea I have tried from Adagio. I've tried other brand and this leaves them all in the dust. I first noticed an amazing floral scent. So sweet! I love just breathing in the scent first. I always taste the tea first without putting any sweetener in so I get the 'real' flavor and it was terrific. Not too strong but lovely light and sweet. I added a tiny, tiny bit of Stevia and it created a most amazing sweet, tasty tea. At first I thought white tea would be too mild, but this is truly a flavorful tea. A real treat any time of day.
This is an extremely mild tea with a subtle flavor. One would need a greater than recommended amount of tea leaves to get a distinctive flavor.
A nice white. Very mild, but also very easy to oversteep.
A solid white tea, nice mild taste great for the end of the evening. We prefer Silver Needle but this is very good as well.
It's a very light tea, and also I find it to be delicate. I will definitely order it again
This was my first time having any kind of white tea, and I enjoyed it. Very smooth and enjoyable flavor. I am looking forward to trying other white teas!
Unique and subtle. This tea has turned me into a white tea fan!
A rather good white tea, but doesn't handle hotter temps as well as I would've liked.
This is a beautiful tea. It's light, it's refreshing, it's perfect for an early spring morning.
I really like this tea. It's nothing fancy, but will buy again.
I had a coworker go on about how much he loved this tea. I thought I would give it a shot. I was not disappointed!
Yummy! Simple and not quite sweet but very nice especially in the morning or evening
Very light on the pallet. I use a little gunpowder or chamomile to liven it up. Smooth honeysuckle finish like stated. Steep as directed.
This tea is delicate, sweet, and subtle. I liked it, but I prefer more robust teas.
Nice and light. Nice fragrance. Nice nighttime tea.
Clean, smooth and delicate flavor similar to Silver Needle but the leaves add a bit more kick to it.
Light, faint, somewhat sweet. This falls somewhere between a truly light silver needle and maybe a green. While I found the flavor generally good, smaller batches of this tea were kind of erratic and inconsistent with their flavor.
If you like white tea, you'll love this, no matter if you go to the white symphony or the black jazz club
Very light, very delicate flavor. The color was very pale, as it should be with a white tea. It wasn't as sweet as I had hoped it would be, but being new to white tea, it's most likely that the (only) other variety I've tried was just unusually sweet. Over all, a pretty good tea.
A very light slightly sweet tea. Excellent evening tea.
Another great white tea. It can be hard to get in stock and expensive, but well worth the price. It's another calm white tea that makes me happy.
Probably one of my favourite white teas. Very light and subtly sweet.
This is a delicious and elegant tea. One can tell by the flavour that it has been artfully grown and made.
This has become one of my favorite teas to relax and unwind with! Ilove the flavor and aroma, delicate and wonderful!
Quite delicate overall. A bit sweet, a bit flowery. No single note is particularly strong. It's just a soft, mild tea.
Love this tea for a special break in the afternoon.
Another great tea. Not too fruity or flowery. Just the right blend of delightful flavors for a comforting afternoon tea.
This is the epitome of white tea. It has a fantastic flavor and a delicate flowery aroma. I like this the best of the white teas I tried!
It's a good solid white tea. definitely one of my favorites. great by itself, wouldn't recommend any cream or sugar.
The flavor was just how it was described here for the first day or so after I received this tea. For some reason, the flavor and smell seem to have changed rapidly since then, and it now smells and tastes somewhat more vegetal than before. I'm not entirely sure of what happened, but the flavor was nice while it lasted.
Bright and floral, more notes to the flavor than silver needle or peony.
Delicate flavor when steeped properly. Good for afternoon or evening.
This is a wonderfully well-rounded cup of tea. Amazing flavor and body, with fruity hints. The liquid is a stunning golden-beige color when brewed.
A tea leaf coated in snowy silken strands gathered from the freshest part of the bush. Pristine, elusive flavor of grapes and white gardenias.
This is a really nice baseline white tea. I steeped 2g for 5 mins in 195F water. The tea came out really nice! Like most white teas it's flavor is more subtle than a black or green, but with a nice full body. The tea has a light honeysuckle aroma and a very slight sweetness. If you're looking into getting into white teas, this is one I'd recommend.
The tea has a nice sweet fruity taste that is a nice way to sit down for the evening after a long day of work. It's very subtle taste that might take some time to get use to if you are use to drinking black tea, but well worth it.
This tea, for me, was not the life altering experience it apparently was for a lot of other people. I like the White Peony much better and this reminded me more of a green tea than a white tea. Will try it again later with lower expectations.
Another fine tea from adagio teas. I will order this one again!
This is a very light tea with slight floral notes, and an all-around pleasant experience that is definitely worth trying out. I took one of its stars only because I do not find it quite as complex as some of Adagio's other teas, as the word 'symphony' might have suggested.
Great white tea. Nice and flavorful with no bitterness and very little astringency. Also good for multiple infusions.
