A wonderful introduction to the wide range of white teas. Each sample makes about 5 cups of tea. This set includes (subject to rare change): silver needle - Silver Needle white tea is among the most revered of Chinese teas. Gathered only for a few days in early spring, a dedication to perfection is evident in the pale, ivory colored liquor. Delicately honeysuckle floral, with a warmed sugar sweetness. white peony - White tea from Fujian, China. White Peony, also known as Pai Mu Tan, is a sweet, mild tea made from unopened tea buds, as well as the two newest leaves to sprout. Warm and floral like fruit blossoms. Golden liquor, succulent floral-fruit flavor. white symphony - A delicate tea made from tea buds collected and withered prior to opening. It create a pale yellow, light bodied, yet complex cup with hints of honeydew and a faint floral sweetness. jasmine silver needle - Young and elegant tea leaf buds with a whisper of jasmine. All the appeal and softly sweet nuances of a classic Silver Needle, enhanced with the aroma of night-blooming jasmine flowers. Airy flavor, delicate mouthfeel and pleasantly dry finish.

This review is from: "Silver" White Teas Sampler (Misc.)

At first it seemed like I paid way too much - the tins are quite small, and not knowing much about loose tea, I could not imagine I got much for my money. I was wrong - not only were the tea's tasty and fun to try; but they have really lasted. The service was wonderful, the product excellent and I would recomend this sampler to anyone interested in learning more about tea and its preperation with out the traditional "tea bag"

I am relatively new to loose tea, and I ordered this sampler. I was blown away. The white tea from Adagio redefined how I think about tea. They are delightfully light and tasty, and mix deliciously with all kinds of herbals for interesting blends.

Be forwarned. The best white teas are VERY expensive, but after trying them, you're likely to think it worth the price.

I've only recently switched over to loose leaf tea only I had never bought from this company before, but I definitely will be making larger purchases after trying this little sampler. I had gotten it so that I may try some flavors I had never had before and this was perfect for me. It was shipped quickly and even my friends were impressed when I had them try it.
