This is my favorite green tea, hands down! I love that you get a little show while you wait for the tea to steep as the pearls unroll and get cosy at the bottom of your mug. And as the leaves are so long you really don’t need a filter of any kind, they just sink to the bottom. This does, however lead to some very strong tea by the time you get to the bottom of the cup, but I just use fewer pearls per cup and give it more time to steep.

I love teas that appeal visually aswell as taste-wise. Adagio’s Black Dragon Pearls are neat like that too – it’s like sea-anemone garden in your teacup. :D
