I am a serious tea drinker- I drink tea all throughout the day- white, green, oolong, puerh, and black. I recently tried Teavana- what a great find! All their teas are top quality- and this one is no exception. All the flavor notes- the pineapple, carrot, apple and pomegranate- are light and subtle. But they blend into this medium, smooth brew. It's difficult to describe the overall flavor- it's certainly not the way I expected from the smell of the tea. This is one of my favorites (and trust me, I've got lots of tea). It's a must-try for serious tea drinkers- you'll be pleasantly surprised and impressed. Enjoy!

I just had this tea today made in the store. Good thing i tried it before purchasing it. It was so horrible i found it hard to finish, and felt guilty throwing it away since it was quite expensive. It wasn't bitter. It was a little weak, but the flavor combinations in this one are just not a good mix. I love white tea, but i think i'll stay with lavender dreams and PEAR LUNA (my favorite) these two have a direct flavor so you recognize what your tasting, whereas the flavors in Queen Babylon are so varied, guess it just wasn't for my taste

Comments about Teavana Queen of Babylon® White Tea:
The only way that I can tolerate this tea is to pour a shot of Orange Juice in it. Keeps it healthy and is the only way my money won't be wasted. I have been so pleased with many of the teas but not the Queen of Babylon; horrible.

Comments about Teavana Queen of Babylon® White Tea:
I've loved tea for as long as i can remember, and have sampled many different kinds over the years, especially at Teavana. After discovering the benefits of white tea,I started looking closer at their selection. When reading the ingredients of this tea, it doesnt seem that it would taste as clean and refreshing as it does. it has a unique combination of flavors that work together perfectly. by far my favorite flavored white tea

Comments about Teavana Queen of Babylon® White Tea:
*Note: I only find this tea bitter when steeped too long or too hot, but that is typical of white teas. Just be careful of that and it's a very unique tea. Very delicious!

Comments about Teavana Queen of Babylon® White Tea:
Quite disappointing - i had expected something fruity and on the sweet side but no matter the steep time or amount of tea used, it always comes out flat reminiscent of herbal tea.

Comments about Teavana Queen of Babylon® White Tea:
I was quite disappointed with this tea. It is so generally weak in flavor & becomes bitter when made stronger. Sorry folks, but that's the long & short of it.

Comments about Teavana Queen of Babylon® White Tea:
I have tried dozens of teas over the past three decades. I began my obsession with Oolong tea in the 1980's while stationed in the Far East. A few years ago, I became hooked on green tea. I thought I had found the perfect tea. However, I recently decided to try bagged white tea on a whim. It was so enticing, I just had to try loose leaf. I have found Eutopia! My senses actually crave it for balance and calmness in the midst of a chaotic world. Queen of Babylon is absolutely amazing -- so calming and therapeutic! I am contemplating offering it to my patients during behavioral therapy. I can only imagine the benefits for frustrated parents in my parenting sessions. I can't get enough -- the bouquet and aroma are a delight to the senses. Four minutes steep time is perfect for a wonderful cup of tea without a hint of bitterness. A teaspoon of dark honey completes the benefits for a day when you feel run down. This tea will be tough to beat. However, I will keep trying with this tea as the baseline for perfection!

Comments about Teavana Queen of Babylon® White Tea:
This tea is great during anytime of the day, especially after school/work when you are trying to unwind. It has a light flavor with a hint of fruitiness- hard not to like. It also has a nice color too after you brew it.

Comments about Teavana Queen of Babylon® White Tea:
I bought four different teas last week from Teavana, and this is my absolute favorite! I over steeped it once while I was distracted and it was horribly bitter, I'll never over steep this again. If you steep it at the recommended time it's amazing. It's light with a very pure white tea taste, and the fruit adds just a hint of flavor without real sweetness, and it smells so beautiful. I'm drinking white tea to help my skin, and it does seem to so far, but this tea is delicious enough to drink for no reason at all.

Comments about Teavana Queen of Babylon® White Tea:
I admit when I smelled this in the store, I had to try it. I was NOT disappointed. The unique blend of flavors is intoxicating to the senses. Not overpowering or bitter at all (unless you over-brew it). One of my top 5.

Comments about Teavana Queen of Babylon® White Tea:
This was the first tea I ever purchased from Teavana and it remains my absolute favourite. When the salesman told my friend and I how great it would be for our beauty, and wafted the aromatic breeze into our faces, we had to have it. It is a beautiful tea to look at, the fragrance is intoxicating, and the taste is light, floral, and naturally sweet. Despite all the added fruit and carrot bits, you can really taste the white tea, which in my opinion is the best kind of tea. It is superb iced and is excellent with a touch of orange blossom or wildflower honey.
