Red Pearls (Hong Zhen Zhu) from Silk Road Teas

Steepster Score 3 Ratings Rate This Tea

79/100

Red Pearls (Hong Zhen Zhu)

Tea by Silk Road Teas

Good value, traditional black tea rolled into small shiny pellets. Aromatic, not too strong with hints of smokiness. Cups to a bright red-brown liquor and finishes with a pleasing aftertaste. Steep in water about 195 degrees for 2-3 minutes.

This is a great, hearty, dense/intense, shot-in-the-arm red tea.

Beautiful copper colour. Lovely smokiness.

Love to watch this tea expand and almost bloom like a flower. Rich taste, giving multiple steeps.
