Jasmine Pearls from The Tao of Tea
Style: Jasmine Pearls – Region: Hunan, China73 / 100 Aroma: 7/10 Flavor: 4/5 Value: 4/5
May. 3rd, 2014
This is a lovely jasmine tea. I just brewed this side by side with jasmine pearls from another company, and these definitely win.
The aroma is strong and lovely. The tea was steeped for 3 minutes and the flavor is strong, without being overpowering. This would be a great choice for anyone who loves jasmine green ...
White Tropics from Adagio Teas
Style: Flavored White Tea – Region: Fujian, China57 / 100 Aroma: 6/10 Flavor: 3/5 Value: 3/5

This tea definitely smells of coconut and pineapple. After brewing for 3 minutes, it also tastes like coconut and pineapple.
My problem is that there's also an extra flavor I don't care for. It's kind of like a peachy floral taste, and it creates an odd aftertaste.
I wanted to like this because it seems like ...

I really wish I tasted some of that pepper from the description.
This was brewed using boiling water for 6 min. The tea smells great before and after steeping, but it has a sharp taste that I don't appreciate.
I try to drink tea without sugar or milk, but it may be needed here. Toward the end of the cup, I star...
Jasmine Downy Pearls from Mighty Leaf Tea
Style: Jasmine Pearls – Region: China67 / 100 Aroma: 7/10 Flavor: 4/5 Value: 3/5
Apr. 29th, 2014
I love jasmine teas, and this one is very enjoyable. It's $24.95 for 3 oz. and since Mighty Leaf has coupons/sales pretty regularly, it can be picked up for even less.
The unbrewed tea smells lovely. I usually steep this for around 2-3 minutes and the jasmine aroma while brewing is noticeable.
I've only tried...
