I don't think it's pure white. Given the type of our star I remember reading it's actually yellow with a hint of green.
It peaks in yellow/green, but its not a ton more yellow than the rest of the visible spectrum so its still very white, the yellow appearance from earth's surface is still more due to atmospheric filtering than the actual spectrum its emitting.
