Best White tea out there...love it!
One of the best teas that I have enjoyed.
This is the best tea I have ever had. I had never tried white tea but once I did I was hooked. My favorite way to consume is cold brew. All day bliss.
I buy this every christmas, I like it very much!
Refreshing hot or iced. One of my favorites. Love all the health benefits of white tea. Google it.
I was due for a newer portable tea container, so I purchased my favorite social tea flavor that I can take with me and refill at will. During the year, I use the container for other favorites, such as Comfort & Joy, Emperor's White, Cinnamon/Cardamom, and Orange Pekoe.
This is my go-to evening cup of tea after a hectic weekday. The smooth, light umami flavor is perfect for winding down.
Have been buying this tea for many years and have never found anything which at all compares with the quality and flavour of this tea, it’s just by far the best white tea. I’m an international customer in the UK and so pleased RoT ships internationally. The tea arrives in good time and condition. Thanks RoT, please keep doing what you do so well.
Excellent tea!!
Really enjoy the flavor of this, it's simple but a fun change of pace from green tea. A little lower in caffeine too. Short steeping time is convenient (I prefer to steep it for two minutes, even though it says one minute, but this is shorter than typical tea steep times.)
The white teas are my favorite and this is delicious.
I am not experienced with white tea comparisons, but I did find this one to be light and easy to drink.
I really like this tea. I let it brew for just 60 sec and it's wonderful.
I bought the tea thinking it would be different than other teas, but it tastes the same, just bitter. I have to add sugar.
Kinda different flavor for me. It was ok for me.
I’ve been drinking this tea for years, Love its delicate subtle flavor and the quick steeping method. Instant tea!
This is the second white tea flavor I've enjoyed from TRoT. First Class white tea. Due to the very low caffeine content, I find it a great go to at any time of day.
I gave it as a gift. Republic of Tea is the perfect git.
I love my Emperor's White Tea. It tastes earthy and delicious, plus it's extremely healthy. I feel like I'm improving my health by drinking a cup every day. And there's very little caffeine, so I don't get the jitters.
As a person on the autism spectrum, I really look for teas with light flavors, as I am easily overwhelmed. This tea is perfect in that regard.
Love this tea, its great iced on a hot day. Very light taste and delicate flavor.
We have been enjoying this tea for over 12 years. Love the subtle flavor.
I love this brand of white tea! It is very delicate, I like to enjoy it later in the day when I sit down to relax. I've been buying it for a long time mostly at gift shops but now using the auto ship service which is great! I never run out now.
I have been ordering this tea for years and I love it more every day, it's the most complex and smooth bagged white tea that I have ever tried. The quality and taste has always been consistent. I also appreciate the 250 bag size for both the environment and my wallet, and I've never had an issue with billing or shipping from The Republic of Tea.
Light and perfect.
Absolutely delicious white tea that I've ordered a number of times. I love it, and the delivery is always so quick! Thank you so much!
My favorite tea and I was happy that I could get it in a 250 bulk tea bag supply.
A delicious mild tea perfect for mocktails.
I go through one of these containers every month. Best white tea I have ever had in my life. It's the reason I wake up in the morning!
A light sipping tea. I drink it straight,t but my friend adds just a sprinkle of sugar. Be sure to pay attention to your time or it can turn bitter. On a couple of occasions, I walked away and it steeped for too long. Still drinkable, but then you do need sugar and milk as it's closer to a bitter black.
Delicate, yet flavorful. I add ginger syrup ( homemade), and make a delightfully refreshing iced tea.
I enjoy this tea as an alternative to my usual go-tos (I tend to drink spicy herbal teas, primarily). The flavor is mild but pleasant, and is nice for when you want a small bit of caffeine without worrying about being kept up later.
This white tea is exactly what I was looking for. Others I have tried, tend to have floral tones which I find to be overpowering. This tea is pure white tea perfection.
Not much flavor here. I prefer the Asian Jasmine white tea.
I love this tea. I used to get silver needle white tea from a little shop in Chinatown a few decades ago. I had missed my white tea and nothing I found really compared to what I used to get until I found this tea. Now, this tea is on subscription. It is light, delicious, and much more convenient than loose leaf. This white tea can be drank pretty much anytime of day. Be sure to not let is steep too long, follow the directions on the tin.
I have been drinking this tea for years. I’ve been getting it here from the republic of tea. It’s got a flowery taste that I like.
Delicate tea when you want some flavor but not too much. Perfect any time of day. Make sure you steep for 1 minute and no longer for best taste.
I know that while tea has a subtle flavor. But I found this tea to be too bland. I am glad that I got to try a sampler.
i feel a bit like the Emperor. For the extra expense of this tea I was expecting more not less. If subtle is what you want, then by all means enjoy this tea. I must admit that I prefer something less exquisite such as the Sping Cherry Green Teawhich The Republic of Tea ststes is "a nice intro to the world of green teas." To me, the Emporer's White tea is without any special flavor. I am giving this tea a 2 rather than a 1 as it isnt so much that it tastes bad, it just doesnt have much taste other than a mild bitter tea taste. While this is the lowest review I have given out among the couple dozen or so teas I have tried, based on the overwhelmingly positive reviews for this tea, I would't take my word for it.
I've also been drinking this tea for many years. It gives me a chance to try something different. I like the fact that I can purchase refills instead of having to purchase a whole cannister of them. It saves me money. Try this for a change.
Me and my husband absolutely loved this tea, one of our favorites! A good, light, everyday tea. We just order another can 🧡
This is a beautiful tea and if you followed the directions and steep for only 60 seconds it is absolutely refreshing and marvelous. You can also drink this in the afternoon if you were caffeine sensitive and not have a problem.
It took a few teabags before I really started to appreciate it, but... This is a winner. The fragrance is almost floral, very delicate, subtle and lovely. The tea is not bitter and has a faint aftertaste like stone fruit (reminiscent of white peach; I'm Asian) that I associate with good quality white tea. And it really does feel like it has low caffeine - it's the only tea I can drink in the afternoon without worrying whether I'll be able to sleep at night. Almost all tea types will keep me awake if I drink them in the afternoon, but white tea does not. (Although I don't push it beyond 4-5PM even then.) I also love that it comes in teabags, which is hugely convenient because I can just brew this in a mug at work rather than waiting for the weekend to break out my teapot and strainer. Even casual tea drinkers at my workplace who tried this one all liked it. FYI this is NOT a strong tea with full flavor like black tea varieties (e.g. Earl Grey). I felt that full 15-16oz water with just one Emperor's White tea bag was enough for me (that gives me light golden color liquor), but if you're used to stronger flavors, it may take a little time to appreciate this one. I'd say be patient and try this one for a little while, without any additives. Emperor's White is a delight on its own.
This white tea has a subtle and sweet taste that I find very satisfying. The delivery was quick, arrived in good condition, and I am very happy with my purchase. I drink multiple cups of this tea throughout the day
This white tea is really a nice change of pace. I usually go for green or back tea and lately flavored and floral teas. However, this tea is really mellow, as one review said, and it is nice for when you want something light. It has a light flavor unless you steep it too long, and like most teas, becomes a bit bitter. However, it also gets a richer flavor so sometimes I let it steep a little too long. I think this is a good tea when you just want to clear the mind or you have eaten something with a little too much flavor. It won't be one I get all the time but I recommend trying it if you are a tea lover.
I use this delightful white tea as a base in which to add a bit of lavender and or a touch of rosewater, lemon Verbena, orange zest, lemon, lime or grapefruit zest to create individualized teas for friends, family and for myself. It is a tea that is delicious both hot or iced.
I love that you get so much tea with this but I will admit my favorite is the loose leaf white tea that they sell on here I prefer more. But still good quality tea.
This exquisitely elegant white tea is richly deserving of its royal title! Smooth, subtle and slightly sweet, it is quite possibly the most perfect tea of its variety on this planet...or most certainly amongst R of T's many, many excellent offerings! Albeit it tad more pricey than its similar counterparts, the Emperor's tea of choice is worth every penny...and a must for those "common connoisseurs" who also enjoy the finer things in life!
This Tea is a True White Tea ! Which surprisingly enough is hard to find these days. Most retailers of White Tea are selling tea that is a mix of Green and White Teas. Or White Tea and some other unknown tea adding to the mix to make it go farther… True White Tea has a light Amber Shade to the color when steeped, and doesn't need sugar at all . The only other place to source true white tea is to buy the hand rolled Pearls directly from China or India…
Absolutely Perfect ! One couldn't ask for better service , better Tea, or faster delivery… Republic of Tea has it Down !
Very good tea for sipping during the cool nights if you do not want the caffeine rush.
I love the mild flavor and it always makes me ready for a new day.
Takes a couple of tries to get this right but it is so delicious. I havent fully prefected the brew but when i get it right it is amazing.
I really love this tea. I make it by the pitcherful and drink it iced. When brewing it I throw in one tea bag of Orange Blossom with 3 bags of White Emperior and it makes a refreshing blend.
I have been drinking this tea for many years. I like the variety and reasonable prices. I wouldn't drink any other!
I like Your Republic Of Tea "Emperor's Tea" because of it's refined, delicious, smooth taste and excellent aroma. (I gave it 5 stars because it's the best!).
This is DELICIOUS tea, the best we have found. My husband loves it and we prefer it to green tea. We take our own tea when we travel.
I have bought tea from Republic of Tea for many years and wouldn't drink anything else. They are the best! I wish they had a program wherein if you buy so much tea they would give you one canister free.
Simply put, this tea really is amazing. It has a delicate, smooth flavor that is very unique and unlike any other tea I've had. As a daily tea drinker, I drink it hot or iced, year round with honey or sugar and it never disappoints. I highly recommend it to anyone who's an avid tea drinker, or is looking to try a new type of tea/switch over to tea. Over the past few years, I have tried white tea from different brands, but none compare to Republic of Tea!
It's Good but to me has a little bitter after taste.. so I add a little sugar to counter that
I like this Emperor's White Tea.. Good flavor add, just a touch of Honey, Yum.. but I like it better without the honey..
I just recently started drinking tea. To me, this white tea is perfect. It has more flavor than any green tea I've tried. It's clean and smooth.
Brings about an energy boost, and the taste is delicious, whether taking it icy cold or hot.
The tea has a soft, mellow, and rich flavor. It has light aromatic sense while being full bodied and delicate. Bottom line, this tea is a solid choice to wind down one's evening.
The flavor of Emperor's White tea is one that I think about and crave. The tea flavor is very mild but also very distinct and beneath it all there is a soft, sweet scent and taste; if tea were a flower it would smell like this. Still fantastic and unique. One of the best.
My sister introduced me to "REPUBLIC OF TEA", many, many, years ago from the Book store Borders, that's right they carried it at that time, I have loved it every since. The White Tea is my special, love it so much the memory stays with me , had to order a Book.
Excellent, light airy. Very enjoyable
White Tea is our favorite and it was VERY hard to find locally. The Republic of Tea was easy to get and buy online.
Very light, great for evening teatime.
I love white tea for the afternoon or evening. It is so low in caffeine that it doesn't keep me awake. This is just what you expect from a good quality white tea. It's light and wonderful. It will burn if you use water that is too hot or if you seep it for too long, but if you make it right it is perfect! I like it with a sugar cube, but I also like my tea sweet.
I love this tea. It's very smooth. I can drink it all day.
I really like this white tea. It is very smooth and has a nice aroma to it. I am glad I found Republic of tea!
Truely enjoyed my cups of tea...delicate, fresh and smooth....pure heaven!
This tea had a nice smooth mild taste to it. Very good quality, especially compared to some that I've tried from other vendors. I will buy from this vendor again...and you should, too.
This is my favorite tea. I drink it at any time during the day or evening. The taste is interesting and complex without being overwhelming, and I find it very refreshing. It works well for me because I have a low tolerance for caffeine and I dislike fruity flavored teas. Try it if you enjoy basic, pure tea.
Sweet, pleasing herbaceous nose. Trickier to prepare than most teas -- mind the water temperature and the steeping time -- but it makes a sweetly fragrant, mellow cup. Pale straw in color. Vegetal flavors become more pronounced with longer steeping, and as these notes might seem to throw off the balance of flavors depending on one's taste, figuring out when to remove the tea bag is crucial. Experiment with steeping times to get the best out of this tea. Great low-caffeine choice for winding down late in the evening.
It is difficult to find a plan, simple white tea with no extras, but Republic of Tea has done it! This is my favorite tea, I always keep my kitchen stocked with it, and I consume between 6-8 bags per day. I bulk-order the 250-count version, now, since I was going through the 50-count cans too quickly. Sometimes I will add a bag of hibiscus to my mug if I feel like having a little kick of citrusey vitamin C flavor, but usually I use 2 bags in my travel mug. I love this tea!
Nice & light, super mellow. Perfect low caffeine tea and for when you don't want a lot of flavors twanging on your tongue.
Don't use boiling water. Let it cool off some. Hard to find simple pure white tea without extras.
This was my first experience with a white tea and I really love it. Very delicate, it is a great late night tea for me.
Not ususally a tea drinker, but this is nice & light with no bitter taste. I'm converted.
This tea is all about the fragrance. It has a lovely floral bouquet and a lingering sweet finish. It is my favorite tea.
Lovely flavor. I usually drink Earl Greyer, but this is good change of taste.
I have been drinking this for a few years now and just love it. It is mild, but not too mild. As others have said, it is easy to over-steep, but I just pay attention to the color and take it out after a few minutes. Never stop offering this guys!
Great quality yet mild. I enjoy this tea every morning with lemon. This is my favorite and hope you never stop offering it.
Very good tea. Great tea with meal
I have introduce other white teas to my husband, but he keeps coming back to this one. He will occasionally request green tea,, but he is a white tea only person
This was a repeat purchase. This is my 'go-to' relaxation cuppa tea at the end of a stressful day. It is complex, yet light, full-bodied and soothing. What's not to love?
Mild and delicious
A very light tea with a nice smooth taste. Goes very well with a light meal of fruit or a follow up to a nice dinner. Great for sipping.
A little too mild for me.
I was looking for a white tea that I might like, so starting with the travel/sample tin of this seemed like the best place to start. I really like it a lot and would buy it again. But I may want to branch out and try some other white teas that sound good to me, first!
Emperor's White Tea is the purest, most crisp White Tea I have ever tasted!!! It has a very delicate, fruity overtone with an earthy finish. However,none of the flavors are too pervasive. My favorite from The Republic of Tea. Be careful though, it's very easy to over-steep this one. Best at 45 seconds. Enjoy!
The scent alone is the lovelest ever! Absolutely delectable. I love it.
