White Flavor Sampler

I'm just wondering why no one is really mentioning anything about the white flavors? Are they good, bad or indifferent? I'm planning on trying them.

So far I've tried 4 of them: peach, pear, tropics, and tangerine. I love all of them. I'm expecting a shipment from Adagio today. I ordered a larger size of the peach (my favorite so far) and a sample tin of the blueberry. I suggest you give them a try.

Thanks VB, I am going to. I don't like the strong black teas, so I am hoping that I can get a flavored tea that I like by going to white.

OK, my 4th package arrived from Adagio since my post earlier today. Included was the white blueberry. I'm not sure why it is rated near the bottom of the white teas because I think it's great. It smells great. I was so please to see real blueberries in the tin. I'm a black tea lover but am really starting to enjoy Adagio's whites !

Happy sipping,

Ron

Glad to hear it's good. I ordered the white flav sampler, so I'll get that one, tangerine, peach and tropics...I'm expecting good things!

Can you (VB) or anyone else describe the flavor as compared to a black, or herbal?

Oolongs are still earthy, like a black tea (and less airy/floral like green and white teas), but much lighter on the tastebuds.
