White Dragon Pearl – Hand-Rolled Fujian White Tea PearlsThe extraordinary White Dragon Pearl is a delicate, hand-rolled white tea. Each pearl is individually handcrafted into a medium-sized sphere that gently unfurls as it steeps. Fine white tea from China's coastal Fujian Province is renowned for its exceptional quality, thanks to high-elevation tea gardens shrouded in cool mist and clean mountain air — conditions that produce some of the world's finest white teas. The tea is picked at a ratio of just two leaves to every bud, following strict quality and tasting standards introduced during the Ming Dynasty. Processing is kept to a minimum: the freshly plucked leaves and buds are withered, hand-rolled and dried almost immediately after picking, preserving their delicate, natural character. Tasting Notes
Why You'll Love ItWhite Dragon Pearl has an even more delicate taste than Silver Needle or White Peony, making it a beautiful choice for quiet, mindful moments. White tea is one of the most gently processed teas, with only a gentle amount of caffeine.
How to EnjoyBrew the pearls in a clear glass teapot or gaiwan to watch them unfurl, and enjoy several gentle infusions. Savor it plain, and pair it with light pastries, fresh fruit or simply a quiet moment. It also makes an elegant gift. Rare, delicate and beautifully crafted, White Dragon Pearl is white tea at its most refined. |

A little steeping tipUse 3–4 pearls; they open slowly. Re-steep 4 times.
Why cold brewCold water draws out less bitterness, so the tea tastes smooth and naturally sweet.
A fresh way to enjoy itSweeten while the tea is still hot so it dissolves. For a smoother, mellower glass, try cold brew: leaves in cold water in the fridge for 6–8 hours.
Think of these as a starting point. Every tea is a little experiment, so adjust the amount, temperature and time to your taste.
