This tea was very delicate, especially for a jasmine tea. The taste was lightly floral with vegetal notes and a hint of vanilla. I thought that the blending of green and white tea added a nice balance. The jasmine scenting was light so the base teas were able to stand out. It still smelled incredible but wasn’t overly perfumy. The leaves danced in the water as they unfurled and they were beautiful to watch. I made a pitcher of iced tea and it was delicious. I loved that this tea is organic and packaged in a very eco-friendly way. The pretty fliptop box was made from recycled materials and whitened without bleach. The tea leaves themselves were in a bag that is made from plant cellulose. I’ve never had tea from this company before but now I’m really excited to try their other selections.
You can find this tea here.
I've never had a green and white tea blend and especially not with Jasmine. It sounds quite good and I think I'll have to give it a try.
Thanks for the comment Daniel! Green and white tea compliment each other pretty well. This one was very good and I'd definitely recommend it.
