From Teavivre

Origin: Fuding City, Fujian Province, China

Ingredients: Tea leaves curled into small pearl shape

Taste: has fruity flavor of peach, tastes sweet, with slight jasmine fragrance showing up after the peach flavor disappeared.

Brew: 1 teaspoon for 8oz of water. Brew at 176 ºF (80 ºC) for 1 to 2 minutes (exact time depends on your taste – a longer time will give the tea a stronger taste and color)

Peach Jasmine Dragon Pearl Green Tea has a similar appearance with Superfine Jasmine Downy Dragon Pearls Green Tea and Premium Jasmine Dragon Pearls Green Tea. The making skills of them are also similar. After the tea makers rolled the tea leaves into small pearl shape, they will mix the natural extractives from peach into the tea pearls. This fruity Dragon Pearl will make you feel like have actually eaten a peach.

Cold Brewed: 7 gr and 750ml in the refrigerator for about 7 hours

Initially has an intensive peach aroma that fades out after few sips and rest on the palate in subtle manner. It has a medium body with strong vegetable notes (peas mostly) with a refreshing dry and bitter edge.

Adding German rock sugar (brown)

When sweetened, peach component is pronounced more and strong vegetable body is mellowed out while the dry edge persists. A good impression of bottled peach flavored iced tea (minus the bad stuff you get with it)… I like it.

I’m not going to rate this tea until I taste it in a classic way.

On a chilly, overcast day when I had to reluctantly drag my butt out of bed in order to go to work, I reach for an old favorite. This is perfection in a cup. The jasmine is strong yet mellow, and the tea does taste faintly peach-like.

I just wish I had time to finish the mug before I had to run out the door.

However, drinking this chilled after work – still yummy.

The most agonizing thing is that we have to leave bed in order to go to work everyday. Drinking tea can keep us awake.

Very excited to try this tea. I don’t mind jasmine teas but I do not like very strong jasmine. I read good reviews of this tea so wanted to try it, and couldn’t pass up on Teavivre’s anniversary sale.

I couldn’t smell much of the dry tea. However, this package was opened by Canadian customs – yes they opened the actual bag holding the tea – and taped it shut. All I could smell was the chemical smell of the tape. Slightly worried the tea is contaminated, but I figured I am using hot water so that should kill any biological contaminates anyway (whatever makes me feel better – right?). In good news, the rolled tea pearls are so cute!

The smell of the brewed tea is not very strong, almost no smell. But as the tea begins to cool it starts to smell like grassy peach, or like peach leaves. Very subtle scent. The hot tea is very little taste. But as it begins to cool the fruity peach taste takes form. There is not too much sweetness. You can taste the jasmine underneath the peach but it is very subtle. To me this green tea is more roasty, so there is not too strong of a vegetal or floral taste. The peach blends well with the jasmine and green tea.

I liked this one best when it was luke-warm. Looking forward to trying it cold.

Wow – customs was really thorough with that inspection!

Yes they were! Opened the box, the outer foil bag, and the inner foil bag containing the tea.

First off, I would like to thank Angel at TeaVivre for sending me these samples. She was incredibly generous in the amount of tea she sent me last month and I look forward to trying them all.

My first steep of this tea was very light in both color and taste. I had difficulty tasting the jasmine, but there was a very subtle sweetness from the peach. What I love about this was that this tea tastes like a genuine peach, and is in fact the only peach tea I can say that about.

The jasmine pearls were just beginning to unfurl in my pot on my second steep, releasing more flavor into this cup. It was noticeably darker and tasted more like a green tea. I still can’t taste the jasmine in this steep, but the peach flavor has gotten slightly stronger. There is also a bit of astringency this time, but nothing that would make this cup undrinkable. 
I noticed that the astringency was much stronger in subsequent steeps. Ultimately I steeped this six times with fairly pleasing results, although I found that I preferred the taste of the cups that steeped for less time. After the first three steeps I started to play around more. I went back to shorter steep times in order to minimize the astringency in each cup.

Since I decided that I enjoyed the cups with a shorter steep time I opened a second sample pack and played around with my steep times. This time I started at 1m and increased my time 15s each steep, so my times were 1m, 1m15s, 1m30s, 1m45s, 2m, 2m15s. I think that for my tastes these times work best for me. I also think that it may be possible to steep more than six times this way and still end up with an enjoyable tea. It was already after midnight when I got to this point so I stopped.

One last thing I want to mention is that this tea is truly amazing when served cold. The peach is less subtle than it was while hot and I noticed the sweetness more.

A little heavy on the peach. And its not really real peach aroma either. Its those peach-o gummies that were so delicious when I was younger…and have now lost some of their appeal.

Its also got a faint smoky element that I wasn’t really expecting. As smoky isn’t really something I associate with peach or jasmine…I guess it is from the tea. And it isn’t a heavy aroma, just reminds me more of the gunpowder green.

this is my favorite so far! i love a nice jasmine tea. this is flavored with peach extract so not overwhelmingly peach but it plays nicely with the jasmine

i steeped for 2 minutes. the pearls werent able to completely unfurl so i will try a second steeping to see how it will affect the flavor

I’m always scared to try peach anything, same with cherry. I love fresh peaches (and cherries), but dried and/or artificial flavors hardly ever compare and are often an affront to my taste buds. It’s good to hear that it’s not overwhelming.

stripped-teas

one of my favorite teas is fruta bomba from teavana. its a green with peach in it (and other things). they use real fruit and its a lovely flavor. not overwhelming. on the other hand, teavanas sakura allure is a green that has real cherries and its such a strong cherry flavor that the tea isnt even green, its dark red. i love cherries also, that one is so strong i typically like to ice it to thin it out some

Free sample with the purchase. Thanks Angel.
No jasmine flavor for me but knowing this from other reviews i mixed some Harney’s jasmine pearls I had. very nice delicate result. i want to try cold steep

Edit: i think i prefer it cold steeped. peach is very pronounced and very juicy. i gave it to my daughter to try and she said its also kind of minty and have cooling sensation. i think it will be great summer iced tea

Got my Teavivre samples in the mail today…and some cookie cutters too…so it was a pretty awesome mail day to be sure.

Anywhow….I had so many options I didn’t know where to start so
I left it up to the fam. My 4 year old told me to try the peach jasmine becuase it’s named after princesses….can’t argue with that logic.

I brewed 1 tsp for 8 oz, 2 min. It’s very light. At first when it was steaming hot, I thought I had done something wrong. It didn’t smell very peachy and I couldn’t taste much…of course I did practically scald my tongue so that probably doesn’t help…but I was too excited.

Anyway, if you let this cool to normal human consumption temperatures it does start to develop a fruity peachy taste. Still light. And there is an aftertaste of Jasmine that kinda lingers. But most def not in any way too pronounced. It whispers.
What surprised me most was how balanced the green was…I’ve had my share of greens and this has to be one of the lightest and non-grassy green I’ve had yet. It all works well…nothing overwhelming any component so you get the entire range of ingredients in your sip…you can taste peach, green tea and jasmine all its own but complimenting each other.
A good sip.

Trying it iced….
I’s so light in color.

I think I like it best iced actually…all the flavors just become enhanced. The peach gets juicer.

Oddly there isn’t anything about this tea that screams PEACH! In fact dry, I was kinda worried by the smell of PEACH when I opened the sample. But that’s just not the case. In fact I might think about steeping more pearls at once next time.

Anyway, a very light, crisp and refreshing green.

This was easily the hardest on the monthly sipdown prompt list for me, “a tea with grape/muscatel notes.” I’ve already sipped down my older grapy-grape Lupicia teas, and when I brewed a cup of the only darjeeling left in my house, it just didn’t have any muscatel notes to it. I recalled that I very often smell and taste a grape flavor in jasmine tea (I’m not sure why, but I have noticed there are some other people out there that have this response as well, so at least I’m not alone) so I decided to brew this long ago sampler from Teavivre.

I recall I picked out this sampler in the first place because my early experiences with jasmine were very not good — as in, it was like inhaling the strongest, worst grandma perfume ever and gave me a migraine — and I thought the proclaimed peach flavoring might tame it a bit. I’m not sure if my tastes have changed since then or it was just bad luck with a far-too-strong jasmine, as I’ve had better luck since then (especially on black bases). Sniffing the dry leaf, I definitely get that distinct flowery jasmine aroma, but I also smell that “grape candy” sort of aroma in it, as well. I definitely don’t smell any peach, though.

Brewed, it still smells heavily of jasmine… not as strong as the “grandma perfume” cup from my memory, but there is a perfume-like quality to it. I also smell grape and bubblegum in the aroma. I’m still not smelling peach… maybe there is some sweetness there contributing to the candy aromas?

The flavor is heady jasmine with a noticable flavor from the green base. There is a slight sweet grassiness but leans more closely to a fresh garden/vegetal quality. The jasmine is strong but isn’t giving me perfume headache, so I’m enjoying the flavor a lot. On the tongue it doesn’t taste as strongly of grapes as I’ve gotten from jasmine black teas, but I do still get that mild grape candy/bubblegum sweet flavor from the tea. There’s peach in this?! Really?! Maybe its just from the age of the sampler, but I don’t get even a hint of stonefruit.

It’s a pleasant cup but I see no reason to have this over other jasmine pearls, as the differential here was the peach, and that is entirely non-present for me.

Catching up on tasting notes from the last few days. This smells lovely! The jasmine is nice and strong, with just a bit of a sweet peach scent peeking through. I found the peach flavor to be barely noticeable, and much too mild. I’ll have to try it again with a bit of sweetener to hopefully bring out more of the peachiness. Still a nice jasmine flavor, though.
