kat drank Black Dragon Pearls by Adagio Teas

I think I’m definitely having a black tea fetish today! :) These pearls are not earth shattering at all but defintely earthy tasting. I can taste the cocoa notes for sure but the dirty earthiness flavors kind of overpowers it for me. Glad I only have a sample of this. Not a very high rating from me on this one. I knew I didnt have an affinity for BALLS!! ;) haha. My gf is happy about this.

It’s interesting that you could taste “dirty earthiness”. I love this tea (as much as I could love any non chai black lol) and “dirty earthiness” would make me gag. How many balls and how much water did you use? I’ve only had this once… makes me want to revisit it.:)

I used about 8 balls per 16 oz

HAAAAAAAAAA! That one deserves a zing! for sure. Welcome to our little clan of Black Dragon double entendre-ing.
