      This is a nice light tea with a hint of pear. I think if you added some sweetener, it would taste the pear more. But for me, it tastes great plain and iced.

      I liked this one a lot, I don't have much experience with white teas, it was light and the pear was subtle, I enjoyed it

      As a white tea this is good, as a pear tea this is okay. From the sample pouch, there is a light pear scent. 3 min @ 165. I don't smell any pear after steeping. There is a faint pear flavor that is easily missed under the floral of the white tea. I like white tea, so I enjoyed it, but for pear it was lacking.

      This is for people who like subtle flavors and aromatic teas more than heavily flavored ones.

      A nice, light pear tea that has the perfect amount of pear. It isn't overpowering nor is the pear difficult to taste. Very well-rounded and great to drink by itself or mix with other teas.

    • 

      I really love this one and highly recommend it iced with some ginger. One of the most refreshing summer drinks.

    • 

      Not a bad tea -- lightly sweet, although I did not really get a pear taste from this. I'm not really a white tea fan as I prefer bolder teas, but this was very good.

      I just love white-flavored teas, especially white pear tea. I like this tea both ways iced or hot, both ways taste like mild ripe pear taste. I love this tea with Splenda sweetener: with 2 tsp for 12 oz mug (hot) for steeping 7 minutes hot or iced.

    • 

      By far, my most favorite white tea by Adagio. This one is also a good tea to use in blends. There are not many pear teas available which make this a delectable find.

    • 

      I'm not usually a white tea fan but I received this a s a sample. The pear and white tea flavors are delicious together. A lovely second cup of the morning if you don't want too much caffeine!

    • 

      I understand that white teas are delicate, but this was a little too delicate for me. Needs more pear flavor.

      We tried this with our Twelve Days of Christmas tea, and it was a hit! It's light and delicate, like a white should be. It's a little light for my personal taste, so I probably wouldn't buy it, but it was nice to have.

    • 

      I found the tea to be weak and with a slightly weird aftertaste, and the peach was very subtle. I cold brewed it which may have made a difference, but that's how I made 95% of my tea. Maybe white tea is just too weak for my taste.

      Really nice with a lovely delicate taste. I'm a sucker for pear and this was a lovely find.

      I like white teas but the pear flavour was a little off.

    • 

      Generally, I am not a fan of White teas; they are simply to mild for my taste. However, the addition of white pear to this leaf transforms a bland tea into a refreshingly light and tasty beverage. A wonderful surprise for my taste buds.

      I found the pear flavors to be just as pronounced as I wanted them to be going in, maybe even moreso. It was light and sweet but rounded with a surprisingly satisfying mouth feel for a white tea.

    • 

      Lovely white tea scented and flavored with pears. I steeped a heaping teaspoon in 6oz of water at 175°F x 3 minutes. The tea is light in color and flavor, which is typical of delicate white teas. The subtle hint of pear needs no sweetener to coax it forward. A "pear-fect" white tea for sipping hot. Would also be refreshing iced.

      This tea was very delicate and light. I added sugar to bring out any flavors of pear. The pear could have been stronger in my opinion.

      Very delicate fruit flavor. Not too sweet. not too artificial. Not a distinct pear flavor, just a delicate fruit flavor. Only tried this cold and it was very refreshing.

    • 

      I have fallen in love with this tea. It's smooth and has a lovely sweetness that surprises your palate with pear. This tea has become one of my go-to cold brews.

    • 

      Really enjoy white teas, for flavor, for health, and for the fun of knowing once only emperors could drink them.

      Adagio's white pear is sweet and subtle, so very enjoyable!

    • 

      It was a whole lot of nothing. I didn’t smell or taste the pear I was hoping for. It’s probably better blended with something else to bring out fruit flavor.

    • 

      I love this tea, it is very night and refreshing. One of my favorites.

    • 

      Not a lot of pear flavor or smell. But as just a white tea its fine.

    • 

      Soft, gentle, and sweet. A calm and relaxing tea!

    • 

      One of my favorites. The flavor is very subtle and light, but that’s why I enjoy it!

      Not a ton of the fruit coming through here. It’s a solid tea but adagio has more interesting white blends.

      Very soft and mild smooth white tea with a very subtle fruity undertone. Very nice for an afternoon break.

    • 

      I didn’t get a huge pear taste, but I enjoyed how light this tea was. Iced with a little sugar.

    • 

      I was very disappointed in this tea because I couldn't taste any pear.

    • 

      Decent white tea. I just don’t think I’m a white tea fan. This is better than their white peach however.

    • 

      Subtle pear flavor, but I added some brown sugar and cinnamon and it tasted like fall in a cup!

    • 

      Subtle, but present pear flavor. It doesn't overpower the base white tea, and is very good.

    • 

      The flavor of the pear didn't really come through for me. The cup was ok but nothing special.

    • 

      Decent white tea with a hint of fruit. Not very strong tho

    • 

      good tea. The tea however tastes nothing like pears. Slightly fruity, that's about it.

      I couldn't get past the very strong, unpleasant smell of the batch I got, I'm afraid.

    • 

      Light flavor, don't taste a distinct pear flavor just white tea. Tasted better as it cooled.

    • 

      A wonderful summer tea treat- crisp and refreshing

    • 

      This is a lovely juicy pear flavor that complements the delicate sweet melon flavors of the white tea really nicely. Soft and subtle, and works well with western style brewing or multiple infusions in a gongfu session.

    • 

      Very subtle, but you definately taste the pear. Unusual, refreshing.

      The tea has a subtle flavor, and the pear comes through nicely.

    • 

      This one really surprised me. The pear goes really well with the green tea. The pear flavor is a little light, but I think it works

    • 

      I wish I could taste the pear more, but it's still there despite being subtle. Nothing too special about it but it was still refreshing. I love pear, so hopefully this tea will get updated in the future with more pear flavor! Pear teas are hard to find.

    • 

      Mild grassy flavor and fruity scent. Not much pear flavor. Very light tea.

    • 

      I love serving this tea warm. It's very light and subtly fruity and the best peach tea I've had form Adagio.
