Product details

Black Pearls - also known as Black Gunpowder Tea or Black Dragon Pearl Tea, is a distinctive loose tea coming from the Fujian province of China, the birthplace of black teas. In China, black tea is known as red tea because of the reddish colour of the brew. Once brewed the Black Pearls unfurl exposing the long leaf of the Camellia variety. The brew has a beautifully complex pallet with a hint of smokiness.

Came across this lovely shop while visiting Winchester. Now, I will only buy my Lavender Earl Grey tea leaves online from here.

I purchase these teas regularly to be shipped to me in California. They’re the best teas I can find, and the Ginger Lemon tea is to die for.
