Tasting Notes:

Our Organic Black Pearls are a rare Spring-harvested black tea, grown and harvested in Fengqing Yunnan Province, China, in a wild, mountainous and misty region. The tea trees are a Camellia sinensis assamica cultivar, grown at an altitude of 4000 meters. Then the tea is hand-picked and expertly rolled from 30 premium quality leaves and fresh succulent buds into a large pearl-like shape before the leaves dry. The resulting large pearls unfurl to dramatic proportions while steeping, revealing aromatic earthy tones of caramelized sugar with undertones of chocolate. After this exquisitely smooth tea experience, you will covet Black Dragon Pearls as the legendary gems they were inspired by.

Madison ★★★★★

These are the first loose-leaf teas I’ve brewed from a wild mountain region, and the spring harvest really comes through in how smooth and mellow the cup is. The pearls are tightly rolled but open up nicely, and the misty Yunnan character gives it a depth I haven't found in other blacks.

Natalie H. ★★★★★

The leaves unfurl beautifully in the gaiwan, releasing a deep, malty aroma that fills the whole room during that first steeping. Harvested in that misty Yunnan region, it has a smooth, almost creamy finish that I keep coming back to every afternoon.

Steven A. ★★★★★

These little spheres are so dense that two teaspoons barely fit in my gaiwan, yet they keep releasing flavor through a fourth steep. The wild, misty Yunnan region really comes through in the tea's smooth, almost creamy body. This spring harvest is a keeper for slow afternoons.
