The right shade for white subway tile?

After lots of agonizing, I think we've finally decided to go with white subway tile and a contrasting grout for our kitchen but the next question is which white for the tile? Our cabinets are true white and the counters are soapstone. We found a sample from The Tile Shop that seems to match the cabinet color almost exactly but question is do we want that? Or would it be better to have the tile be slightly creamier than the cabinets? I can't seem to find a good example of what (ever so slightly) darker tile might look like. Any thoughts?

Our walls are a medium beige color and the floors are hardwood (red oak) if that makes a difference.

Thanks so much!
