Black Dragon Pearls
Hailing from the Yunnan province, this black tea version of the popular Dragon Pearl is naturally sweet and smooth with a touch of earthiness. Comprised of only the highest quality leaves and buds, expertly rolled into a large pearl-like shape. Subtle cocoa notes whisper gently as each pearl unfurls delivering a superior tea experience not to be missed. We suggest using 2-3 Dragon Pearls per cup for a sublime tea drinking experience.
Product Info
In Western culture, dragons are known to be seen as a frightning creature. In China and other Asian countries, dragons are often benevolent creatures, known for their intellect, supernatural powers, and affinity over water. Once used to depict the emperor's power, they have long been symbols of power and good luck. Sometimes depicted as holding flaming pearls to symbolize their spiritual energy, wisdom, power, and more! They have been key figures in Chinese mythology and culture for thousands of years. It should come as no surprise then that our black dragon pearls come from Yunnan, the birthplace of a beverage nearly as old as the dragon's themselves.
Using about 2 grams (1 teaspoon) of loose leaf tea per 8 oz. cup of water is a safe bet.
Always start with fresh, pure, cold filtered water when you brewing tea. Spring water is the best.
Cover your tea while it steeps to keep all the heat in the steeping vessel.
