Black Dragon Pearl from Teavana
57

A decent tea. The pearls are pleasant to look at. There are a lot of golden buds peeking out of there, and I like that. The flavor, for a Chinese black tea, was rather thin and bland, but with at least a prominent flavor nonetheless. The aroma is delicious. At this price, though? I’ve had much better Chinese black teas at a much cheaper price.

Bio

I am planning on opening my own beverage emporium in the future. I love tea, especially hand-picked, traditionally processed, Chinese and Taiwanese teas that have given their makers a just livelihood. Oh, and of course, they have to taste good, too!

My name “cha dao,” comes from the Chinese phrase meaning “way of tea.” I try to live up to this name because the culture of tea challenges me to be more humble, respectful, hospitable, and an overall better person.
