Description

Only the very best quality leaves with a high proportion of young buds are used to make this premium tea, which is expertly rolled into large pearl-shaped pellets in the traditional manner by experienced tea farmers in China. Just one glance is enough to show you that our Black Dragon Pearls are something really unique and special!

Organically grown and harvested in Yunnan Province, our Black Dragon Pearls are the black tea version of the much more common Dragon Pearl green tea. Black Dragon Pearls slowly unfurl in your cup to produce an infusion that has a naturally sweet flavor, similar to raisins, with notes of earth, it is smooth and chocolatey. Hints of cocoa whisper a subtle promise as the leaves unfurl, producing an aromatic and delicious brew to be savoured.

We recommend you to steep 2-3 Black Dragon Pearls per cup in hot water. Allow plenty of room for the tea to expand and unfurl in order to really release all the flavor of your Black Dragon Pearls!

I had a hard time noticing any chocolatey nutty flavors but I did notice sweet earthy flavor. I guess those chocolatey nutty flavors are pretty mellow that they are unnoticeable if you don't have a clean palate. But I still like the pleasant earthy flavor, the overall aroma, and the sweet taste. It didn't give me a dry mouth feel even when brewed strong.

Big pearls, which expand so you don't need too many for a mug. Reminds me of cacao nib tea, so yes there's def a chocolate element to it. They aren't kidding about the caffeine content either, but I'm sensitive to caffeine, so, maybe not an issue for others. Recommended!

I drink this tea every morning and really enjoy it. A little caffeine to get my day started. The balls are convenient as well.

Rich and malty flavour with a nice natural sweetness and a hint of smokeyness. I found it best to brew this loose in something like a tenmoku or matcha bowl instead of using an infuser so it can spread out and infuse properly. Just drink around the leaves. I can steep it up to three times that way, depending on how quickly I drink the first one.
