Jasmine Yin Hao (meaning 'Silver Tip') is a deeply perfumy green tea from the Fujian province of China. Very layered and lingering floral aroma. Soft, full-bodied and sweet flavor with a slight dryness in the finish. Our Jasmine Yin Hao grade is among the highest for green jasmine teas. This jasmine green tea has been infused with jasmine many times over to create a truly unforgettable experience. Steep at 180°F for 2-3 minutes

      Strong floral aroma and flavors here, a really solid jasmine for those that like the flavor!

      This is my favorite jasmine tea, the jasmine is strong and it is a good cup to sip on. I love that they don't hold back on this one, I hate buying a jasmine tea only to get a weak background flavor. This jasmine is present and the aroma is delightful.

      What a very light-soft and deep perfume jasmine taste but not perfumy or overpowering. I love it all natural, but I use some Bees adagio honey and it is such a delicious, beautiful treat.

      I don't usually like jasmine teas, but I have to admit this was good. Very floral, but it didn't have any of that bitter perfume taste I normally associate with jasmine teas. I think this one taught me that it's really important not to oversteep floral green teas. Stick to the 2-3 minutes and it's perfect. Go over that and you'll feel like you're inhaling perfume.

      If you like intensely green, intensely flowery teas, this is for you. It has a strong flavor that you won't mistake for anything else. Definitely not a bland tea!

      Jasmine green tea is what I like to drink daily, and after trying 20+ varieties, this has become my daily go-to. It's reasonably priced but tastes just as good as or better than most of the higher end varieties I've tried. I like that you can brew it for slightly longer than the typical recommended time for a stronger flavor without it tasting bitter/burnt.

      I absolutely love this jasmine tea. Light and bright jasmine flavor -- not too much, not too little. just perfect. Makes for a comforting and relaxing cup of tea.

    • 

      Certainly not a bad jasmine tea, but I've had a few better ones before. This one is very light and subtle. It's hard to distinguish between various jasmine-flavored teas since they all taste very similar in some ways. But I felt as though it wasn't quite as smooth as others I've had.

      This may say more about me than it does the tea, but I could not distinguish between this and Jasmine Jade Pearls. I'm not sure which works out to be the better value given that the pearls gave me about 4 infusions before it was time for new leaves. So even though the per ounce cost of the Jade Pearls is higher, it might work out to where the cost per cup is the same.

      And that's where I find myself with my tea. Trying to distinguish if this is a way to get a tea flavor I really like for a better cost

      Delicious, delicate, beautiful. Comparable to Jasmine Phoenix Pearls. Definitely going on my next order!

      It's a delicate floral tea. I still don't like floral teas.

      This one completely blew me away. It wasn’t as floral as the jasmine pearls but slightly sweeter. I added sugar to smooth it out

      Like most Adagio teas with Jasmine, I think it's a bit soupy. I'm usually a fan of jasmine, just not feeling Adagio's.

      Hard to go wrong with this delicate floral cup of tea

    • 

      A nice green tea. The jasmine was not as strong as the jasmine phoenix pearls I tried recently. The jasmine was a strong flavor, yes, but I was able to also actually taste the green tea base. In comparison, this tea's jasmine flavor wasn't as overwhelming as the pearls. The flavor stuck around for 3 steeps, of course getting just a bit weaker with each additional steep.

      Tastes good with sugar.

      Steeped 3x, 175F 3min

      I don't choose jasmine green often, but this one is really lovely! Unlike some I have tried, the jasmine isn't too perfumy or fake tasting. The green tea isn't bitter or sharp. An overall good tea! Jasmine green lovers will almost certainly love this one.

      This jasmine tea has less of the jasmine taste than the jasmine Phoenix pearls. I am getting a mineral taste at the end of the sip.

      Beautiful jasmine aroma, with a very strong jasmine flavor. A little sweet when hot, with a nice astringency to finish.

      This is a very earthy tea. Not my taste, personally, but people who like green tea would probably enjoy it.

      Very pleasant jasmine tea. Strikes a nice balance.

      adore jasmine teas. they make me think of Zen - zazen and the 'keeping awake' ...

      I love this tea! One of my favorite Jasmine teas I've ever had. Light and fragrant but not weak.

      EDIT: I've since gotten burnt out on floral teas but this is still delicious on the rare occasion I drink it.

    • 

      Not as good as Adagio's jasmine phoenix pearls, a little less fragrant.

    • 

      I've had better jasmine teas. Sure, this was absolutely lovely, but compared to say, jasmine pearls or even jasmine chun hao, it just didn't measure up. The jasmine wasn't quite as powerful as I like.

      I found this jasmine tea was a bit heavier than the lighter versions I normally like, but a high quality tea regardless.

      It is for me a favourite. After not having it for a while, I miss it. Not the traditional jasmine smell after steeping, but quite pleasant.

      Delicate tea with light jasmine flavor not too overwhelming very subtle and enjoyable

      An enjoyable tea with some definite jasmine flavor but not quite as much as I'd prefer. Also tended to turn a bit bitter.
