Silver Yin Zhen Pearls White Tea

I never tried white tea until i started shopping at teavana and came across this product through a recommendation by the associate at the store. so i tried it and was really impressed that it wasn't too sweet or vegetal taste but rather it was calming and light,and has a subtle texture to it. I wouldn't recommend people to buy this tea if they are looking for a "kick" in their tea cup. but if you're looking for a light and subtle texture than you found the right tea.

This tea I've enjoyed again and again. It's a light one, so be careful to that, but the price is worth the taste. It's not too light and has a sweet undertone, I love it.

Now here's a great tea! It tastes very smooth, is enjoyable to make, and is very relaxing. I often use it in a blend with a fruity white tea in a 1:1 ratio. As you have likely seen already, this is a very expensive tea. However, the fact that I traditionally get 4-5 steeps out of this tea makes the pill a little easier to swallow. I would not recommend this tea to a friend SOLEY because of the price.

Although white teas aren't exactly my cup of tea......This is very soothing and relaxing at anytime in the day.
Blends extremely well with spice flavors as well as fruity infusions.
All in all a great addition to anyone's collection.I would have given it a higher score if it was even a little stronger and if it wasn't so touchy when it comes to steep time/temp.

Now that I've tasted this tea...i can't drink anything else. it is by far the best there is. I sometimes find myself opening the container just to smell it. well worth every penny.

I make the Silver Yin Zhen Pearls using a Breville One-Touch Tea Maker, following the instructions on the package, and serve it without any add-ins. I honestly expected more from the tea, seeing as the price tag is quite high. Like other reviewers mentioned, it tastes quite vegetal, but unlike other reviewers, I could not discern a sweet or honey-like quality. The scent is very earthy. Though I do not like this tea, it does not get sickening and is easy to gulp down without a strong aftertaste. I'd probably mix it with another tea the next time I make it, which shouldn't be horrible seeing as the tea alone is light and meek.

I really wanted to like this tea. I tried it several times, but it is so strongly "vegetal" in taste, that the only way I can drink it now is by mixing it with another tea. It isn't bad when mixed with Dragonwell, but I would certainly not purchase it again.

I prefer teas that are fruity, floral or herbal. This is the first 'straight' tea that I've truly enjoyed. It simply makes me feel good and refreshed. I do add rock sugar for sweetening. And honestly, I just put the pearls in the bottom of a glass mug, add the hot water and sweetener, watch it unfurl and enjoy. Really love this tea.

This is a smooth tasting white tea with a hint of honey that draws you in immediately for another sip. The aroma is wonderfully sweet, then the flavor has vegetal notes that are mellow and delicious. For a green tea choice, I love Jasmine Pearls as a great way to start the morning, so I am glad to now have a comparable morning white tea experience from Teavana. This one is definitely worth the price for me and I hope Teavana keeps producing it because I see this as becoming a regular among my daily choices.

This is the most delicious white tea I've ever had. It's smooth and soothing. It's expensive, but you can brew the same tea over and over again, so you get many more cups of tea out of this than many other teas.
