This isn’t a “get-up-and-go” kind of tea, it is a “curl up and take the time to enjoy this complex tea” kind of tea. It is a very relaxing and contemplative tea. Get 10% off at Grand Tea with the tea coupon code in this review!

There is an interesting sweetness that rests in the background of this tea, and that sweetness is contrasted with a savory sour note. This contrast is quite wonderful and is keeping my palate interested. A wonderful smoothness to this tea.

Although it also does make a quite delicious iced tea as well, I still feel you get the best flavor from it when served hot. A fabulous example of two outstanding Japanese green teas!

The pale amber tea possesses a very faint, sweet floral undertone, but even more delightful (and quite unexpected) was the buttery flavor that washed over my palate.

The brewed tea smells like very strong jasmine. I was hoping that the taste would be as nice as the smell. The flavor is rich without being overpowering or “too much”.

I have been familiar with Grand Tea for some time now, but I’ve come to know them primarily as the tea that my favorite Chinese restaurant serves. I am so glad to have tried their Oolong, because it lives up to the quality that I’ve come to recognize from Grand Tea. This is an excellent Oolong!

The green tea is delicious, not extraordinarily grassy-tasting, instead, it is a lovely, gentle flavor that perfectly complements the lavender. The lavender is sweet, yet pungent with sharp notes.

They brewed up to a light clear gold. The taste was gentle, smooth and almost buttery. As I drank my first cup, the tea bloom kept brewing and my second and third cups, though each one stronger – kept that lovely flavor!

Rose Fairy is a blooming or a flowering tea. It lives up to its name as it blooms open and seems to dance around in the water like a fairy might grace us with her presence. It’s beautiful and fun and delicate!

This tea opens up slowly to reveal three beautiful tiers of white chrysanthemum-like flowers which are topped by a tiny little red flower – or perhaps it is a rose fairy? It reminds me of a ballet – so magnificent, so splendid, so grand.

I generally brew Dragon Well tea in a gaiwan, and that is how I brewed this particular Dragon Well. I like to brew it this way because it is easy to resteep the leaves and enjoy the tea over the course of a couple of hours. It is a very relaxing and contemplative tea, while at the same time, it seems to restore my body and eases any physical signs of stress I might be experiencing.

If you’ve tasted Silver Needle teas in the past that have been far too delicate for your liking, tasting a bit more like water than of tea, I suggest trying this tea. You may just find a favorite with it!

while sipping this tea, I find that it evokes thoughts of walking through a path strewn with leaves of yellow, orange and red. The air is cool and crisp. It is fall. And there is a smile on my face as I sip Pu-erh.

It has an almost honey-like undertone to the fragrance and flavor. The flavor is polished and robust, with a brisk aftertaste which clears the palate leaving a “golden” flavor on your tongue. Love it!
