Tea for work today. Vegetal with an ever so slight roasted quality and a tiny but of astringency. Still need to try other Dragonwells to compare.

Good basic English Breakfast. Still learning to like this as it is slightly stronger than I care for but it is not bad at all.
Had a second cup, just as good as the 1st until my puppy stuck her nose rudely into my cup when I turned to answer the phone.
Sweet, but not too sweet and the apricot is actually present in the taste.
Trying to figure out why this came out bitter today. Used boiling water and steeped for 3 minutes like I always do. I’m thinking it has something to do with my cranky Monday mood.
Savory, vegetal, and sweet. Hit the spot.
Sick at home and drinking this. Very soothing tea.

Grassy and sweet. Yum!
There are no artificial tasting coconut flavors in this tea. This was the perfect complement to the huge breakfast I had this morning.
Earthy and dark. Full bodied and almost chocolaty. I was surprised to like this since I don’t always go for teas this dark. Neat to watch the pearls unfurl.
Softly green with rose strong in the nose and mouthfeel. Have to be in the right mood to drink a tea a rose flavor, but when I’m in that mood, it is lovely. Very pretty looking tea with the rose petals.
Different from other Silver Needle teas I’ve had. This one was ever so slightly grassy and not as sweet as others. Enjoyed two steeping with the 2nd one bringing out a surprising similarity to gunpowder green without the the green taste.
Savory and comforting. Absolutely love this tea!
My mom, who is not a tea drinker, came over for dinner and I prepared this for dessert. It was my first time trying this. It is very yummy and makes a great after dinner treat. Not a strong tea taste but the chocolate and mint are quite prominent which I liked.
Was very nervous to try a Lapsang Souchong for the 1st time. Wasn’t completely turned off but I haven’t quite figured this tea out. I feel like a campfire is now invading my senses.
Tried this again and it still doesn’t grab me like I want it to.
Still liking this even as the weather is cooling off.
This is such a lovely, comforting tea. I feel a cold coming on and this is just what I needed to relax with.
Not quite sure about this yet. Wasn’t bad but I didn’t taste much vanilla, sadly.

Tried this for the 1st time this morning. Liking it a lot! Slightly malty with hints of pepper.
Why haven’t I tried this before?! A great flavored black tea!
