Octavia Tea Silver Needle (Organic White Tea) Loose Tea, 1.23 Ounce Tins

4.5 Stars. I love this one. When brewed correctly it’s got that wonderful sweet perfume of floral oolong teas without a hint of bitterness. Highly recommended for jasmine tea lovers looking for something a little different. I can usually get three pots worth drinking out of it, with the second being the tastiest.(I brew it at the “low” setting on my electric kettle for 5 minutes. For repeat brewing I do 7 and 10 minutes.)I have had better oolong, but only from thejasminepearl dot com. I’ve tried all of the Octavia Tea oolong and this is the best by far, but the orchid one isn’t bad either. I really really love sweet floral oolong varieties and have tried several brands. If I hadn’t tried the tea from the other site I mentioned I’d definitely give this a 5*.(Hey all, feel free to rec other things for me to try! 😁)

Excellent quality, good price, beautiful canaster keeps it fresh.

Absolutely LOVE this tea and highly recommend it if you enjoy oolong tea. Enjoy it both hot and cold, it has a very lovely, tongue tickling flavor...5 star taste! Been getting this tea through Amazon's subscribe & save for a year or more and love that about it as well.

Upset my stomach a lot, didn't taste as good as I was hoping it would...

Flavor profile is average. I've had better.The directions for steeping are lame: The back of the tin says to bring water to a boil. Green or white teas are typically are steeped at lower temperatures than boiling, white having the lowest temperatures, which most tea connoisseurs know. I get the impression that this is the same directions for all their teas, regardless of the type of tea. That's pretty poor.I do like the packaging, the metal tin, which has an air of elegance.To sum: the very least they should do is rewrite the info on the back. Not sure what they can do to up the flavor profile though.

Good tea. Bought it when it was only a couple dollars and it was well worth it. Tin was nice for storing the tea. Would buy again.

Excellent tea especially when slightly chilled.

I like it. Good stuff.
