Large, dark brown leaves have been carefully rolled into uniform pearl shapes to create this unique Black Dragon Pearl tea from Yunnan province. Both the dry pearls and the infused liquor are fragrant with the scent of chocolate, hinting of its delicious flavor. The golden-amber cup of Yunnan black tea is rich and earthy with notes of sweet cocoa and hints of stone fruit. The finish is smooth and lingering.

I took a sip and it literally blew me away where I went WOW!! This is one intensely delicious tea! It has a unique flavor unlike other black teas, and has that WOW that makes it stand out. It was like doing a second-take between expectation and off the charts delicious. One of my top favorites! Highly Recommend!
Liked it!

I ordered a sample for the two of us. We like it very much, steeping one pearl per 8 ounce cup. The flavor is mildly full bodied and very slightly smoky giving the tea 'a push'. Overall, an elegant experience for a special tea. I usually have a spot of cream with my brews but not this one!
A must-try, even as a sample

I bought a sample out of curiosity, and I would recommend others do so. The first steep is reminiscent of chocolate covered fruit, in both the taste and the aroma. The second steep starts to unfold the darker notes of toasty chocolate. Absolutely fantastic, this is the best tea I've bought so far.
