Iced white tea has a very delicate taste. It is very different from other teas. Unlike the vegetal flavor noted in green tea, iced white tea has a unique sweetness. There is a great range in taste, though, depending on the variety of iced white tea you are drinking. China Mist chooses a white tea with a sweet and mild flavor that is also slightly nutty. The flavor of our iced white tea is described as light, and slightly sweet.
