Like some of the other ATR scented/flavored teas, the strong point here is the jasmine flavor. Maybe not as full as some so it tends toward the soapier end of things (as opposed to the herbal end of this spectrum of jasmine I apparently have in my head). The underlying green tea does let the jasmine shine but doesn’t contribute much flavor of its own.

ok, the funniest thing. i just ordered this as the jasmine pearls organic from ATR – and i had the same opinions about them as you, more or less. HOWEVER just so ya know, i dumped both teas into one cannister and shook it up real good. YUM! mixed together, there’s plenty of jasmine, no soapiness! it’s like the yin and the yang were trying to find each other, and i found a way for them to be together!
so. if you have any of both left over, mix-em! much better tea that way.
