Asian Jasmine 100% White Tea from Republic of Tea
Style: Jasmine Tea – Region: Fujian, China80 / 100 Aroma: 9/10 Flavor: 4/5 Value: 4/5
Dec. 19th, 2024
I enjoyed this slightly floral (jasmine) and very white, simple tea. Very good on it's own - I prefer it hot. Not enough body for an iced tea. I did add a bit of maple syrup to it, but it is fine unsweetened, too. I like it.

Silver Needle from ITO EN
Style: Silver Needle – Region: Fujian, China63 / 100 Aroma: 6/10 Flavor: 4/5 Value: 3/5
Aug. 12th, 2016
If you like white teas (so pale - must steep longer.) this is a safe choice and has not only a light grassy note but I got "flowers" - or maybe even honey if that's not reaching too far.
I let it steep forever - over 5 minutes and it was still so pale, but it is, after all, a white tea.
Rich in antioxidants. Lik...
Jasmine Pearls from Numi Organic Tea

I love to brew up pearled teas - and jasmine pearls ROCK for me - so I liked this one. Fun to watch the pearls unfurl when you brew them. Delicious jasmine/green/floral notes. Fun to drink and requires no sweetener.

Jasmine Pearl from ITO EN
Style: Jasmine Pearls – Region: Fujian, China73 / 100 Aroma: 7/10 Flavor: 4/5 Value: 3/5
May. 29th, 2013
If you can find this (loose only - pearled by hand - and gorgeous to watch steep) try it! I used to get this from the NYC Ito En flagship store years back. I miss it. Subtle floral jamine notes and a pale yello/green steep after several minutes (be patient). Great hot and OK iced. (I prefer this one hot with a lit...

White Peony (Bai Mu Dan) from Two Leaves and a Bud
Style: White Peony Tea – Region: Fujian, China73 / 100 Aroma: 7/10 Flavor: 4/5 Value: 4/5
May. 16th, 2013
I had this at a day spa and loved it - so I actually bought a box of the bags. Took me a while to get through but I really like the floral, green and "stemmy" notes of this conveniently bagged tea. Smells great.

Dragon Pearl Jasmine from Harney and Sons
Style: Jasmine Pearls – Region: Fujian, China87 / 100 Aroma: 10/10 Flavor: 5/5 Value: 3/5
May. 16th, 2013
Delicious but expensive. Smells so great in the tin. Floral notes (Duh - it's a jasmine!) and a a pale-greenish brew brew upon a short steep. Do not over-steep this one.
I enjoy watching the little balls unfurl as the water hits them. I have never tried this on ice - but I imagine it'd be good. Oh, I love Jasmin...
Lapsang Souchong from ITO EN
Style: Lapsang Souchong – Region: Fujian, China57 / 100 Aroma: 6/10 Flavor: 3/5 Value: 3/5
May. 13th, 2013
Sorry - I just don't care for Lapsang Souchang (smoked) teas in general - and Ito En's is no exception - but that said - if you like smokey back teas with a strong aroma and a full-body when brewed (best served hot - it's just not an "icing" tea) - give Ito En's a try.

Jasmine Silver Needle from ITO EN
Style: Jasmine Silver Needle – Region: Fujian, China70 / 100 Aroma: 7/10 Flavor: 4/5 Value: 3/5
May. 13th, 2013
I love Jasmine-style teas and Ito En's is no exception. Brewed loose-leaf in a diffuser or tea ball is best served hot - not sweetener or lemon required. Grassy, floral and light bodies. Easy to drink. Harder to find outside of NYC and LA.(and of course, Japan).

Organic White Peony from Premium Steap

May. 5th, 2013
Delicious but pricey this light tea is great both hot or over ice. If you are ever in Philly visit STEAP. It's a great tea shop and the lady who owns it is really knowledgeable.
