From Adagio Teas

Jasmine Phoenix Pearls are perfumy, hand-rolled jewels of tea from Fuding, in Fujian province, China. Any fan of jasmine tea should try this specially crafted wonder. When added to hot water, Jasmine Phoenix Pearls majestically unfurl, releasing their delicate scent and flavor. Also known as ‘Jasmine Dragon Pearls’, their liquor is sweet and almost sugary. Very soft, airy mouthfeel. The delicate quality of the flavor is due in part to the leaves used to produce this tea: two tender, tiny new leaves and one plump unopened leaf bud. Younger leaves will yield softer flavor.

In mythology, the phoenix is a bird that dies in fire only to rise again from its ashes. Closely related to the idea of renewal or regeneration, it has inspired and influenced countless stories since its ancient legends, including Harry Potter, which features both the Order of the Phoenix and the phoenix character Fawkes, and X-Men, which boasts the famous Phoenix character (a cosmic force frequently associated with telepath Jean Grey) and the Dark Phoenix arc. We can’t promise any super powers from our tea, but we do think you’ll feel pretty super taking a sip.

Green Tea | Moderate caffeine | Steep at 195° for 2-3 minutes.

This is a fantastic Oolong Jasmine tea. The flavor of the jasmine is very light, and you really smell it more than you taste it. Very highly recommended.

Pretty good. Not as flowery as it smells (which is a good thing). Needs some sugar, though.

An enjoyable and refreshing tea. It has a wonderful aroma with an excellent light, floral flavor. My first jasmine tea and it’s a great change from herbals, black and green teas I’m more used to. Lots of flavor even on a third steeping.

This is the favorite tea in my cabinet at the moment. I have brewed these up to 5 times and had a good cup every time. I found it only got better with subsequent brews even. All in all a very delicate and wonderful tea.

This tea is sublime, absolutely worth the price. The jasmine scented pearls produce a delicate floral cup.

light and refreshing – but not as flavorful as other jasmine teas I’ve had, or other jasmine pearls for that matter

Although a little pricey, it goes a long way. I always have this tea on hand, and often make it for guests. This was my “gateway tea” – there was no turning back to supermarket teas after this one.
