★★★★☆

A great, cheap stand-in white while I'm scrounging up money to get the better Silver Needle or White Darjeeling. I enjoy this white better than the White Peony though, as I find its flavor to be as advertised: slightly more refined, subtle, transient, whereas the White Peony can be a bit brash.

★★☆☆☆

Not very good. Too mild of a flavor for me. I even tried doubling the amount of tea to brew and still didn't come out strong enough for me.

★★★★★

Big fan of this white tea. Simple, yet something I can drink several times per week.

★★★★★

Just as subtle as most white teas, but the mild taste and scent are great.

★★★★★

Very fragrant tea. Seems to have a lemony scent and flavor, but very mild at that. Always a great drink. Seemed to be finished quicker than I planned. Probably because I would steep 5 cups at a time.

★★★★☆

A nice typical white tea. Nothing extravagant, but that is not always necessary.

My favorite white staple. Clean and healthy. No surprises here.

★★★☆☆

This was pretty "eh" for me, but I'm beginning to discover that I don't really enjoy white teas as much as most tea drinkers.

This is the first white tea I've had, so I don't know much about them. That being said, I'll probably reorder it in the future.

★★★★☆

Great white tea! A little light at 2 teaspoons per 12 ounces, so I doubled it. Terrific!

★★★★★

Very happy with this white. Delicate, sweet, floral. This is a version of white peony (which I love) and is like a white peony with all of its positive traits amplified but still balanced. (If that doesn't make sense, just think white peony, but better.)

★★★★★

Very good white tea, it leaves a sweet after taste that reminds me of honey and melons. Very delicate though, drink it without sugar to get all the flavors and be sure to steep if for 7 minutes.

★★★★☆

A decent white tea. A bit ... Grassy for my tastes? I actually prefered the Snowbud tea to this one (I think it's cheaper, aswell). I'd recommend getting a sampler of this one if you really want to try it.

★★★★★

Great tasting white tea. Has more complex flavcrs then I taste in other whites.

★★★★★

Nice, subtle, light and delicate. Perfect for anytime of the day or night.

★★★★☆

This tea has a wonderfully light flavor and is perfect for an afternoon cup of tea.

★★★★★

Tasty white tea. Reminds me of silver needle, but a little brighter.

★★★★★

Wow, I didn't think I liked white tea. This is nice with a light taste, but not 'watery.' Great!

★★★★★

This is a very enjoyable white tea, with a slightly earthy but sweet flavor. Develops nicely over the course of multiple infusions.

★★★★☆

A very good white tea. I am usually a green tea drinker so this was a change for me and I liked it. It was subtle yet tasty and had many elements to its flavor- which was a good thing.

★★★★★

Very rich and sweet White Tea. Will definitely get again.

★★★★★

A very subtle white tea that still has great flavor. I liked it as much as the silver needle.

After my sample ran out, I quickly ordered a 3oz tin.

★★★★★

Another wonderful light tea. No need for sugar in this one. Great aroma in the final cup of tea and was good for 3 steeps.

★★★★★

★★★★★

If you like white tea, this is everything you could hope for. Great flavor.

★★★★☆

This is a pretty good simple white tea. It is good as a cheaper alternative to some of the more expensive white teas.

★★★☆☆

I might need to try this a few more times but i'm quite underwhelmed with this one. I really do like white teas but white symphony is pretty flat in the flavor department.

★★★☆☆

Good flavor -- good scent. A nice breakfast tea.

★★★★☆

A very good white tea. It perhaps lacks the individuality of some of the other white teas I've tried, but it is pleasant nonetheless.

★★★★☆

This tea is exceptionally smooth, with melon/cucumber flavor. Delicious.

★★★★★

Very mellow, produces a light yellow cup of deliciousness. Definitely worth a sample at least.

★★★★☆

Nice white tea; pleasant taste and not too strong.

★★★★☆

I was expecting a sweeter tea, based on my sampling of the white-blueberry tea, but I didn't get that same hint of sweetness with this. Instead I got a smooth tea with an attractive aroma that didn't disappoint in any way. Quite tasty indeed.

★★★★★

Very good white tea, but I think I'll stick with my go-to white peony based on taste and cost.

★★★☆☆

I was indifferent to the taste of this tea. It tastes okay but far from my first choice for unflavored white teas. To be more descriptive I would say it tastes a little bland. I'm not sure how else to describe it.

That slight honeydew flavor makes this one of my favorite white teas.

★★★★★

I really liked this tea. My husband is a green tea drinker, I am a white. Even he likes it. Subtle sweet flavor. I use honey to sweeten all my teas. I made this hot and cold and loved it both ways.

Subtle flavor that hints at greatness. A good simple tea for the spring.

★★★★☆

This is a nice white tea. Very smooth and flavorful.

A good alternative to Silver Needle for those of us who are a little bit more cost-oriented. A very drinkable tea.
