 | "A grassy, vegetal green tea with a nutlike aroma... not a bad tea, but there was nothing here that made me want another cup."
|
Before I move into my actual review of this tea, I feel compelled to mention part of my “experience” of this cup of tea. For whatever reason, I chose to brew my first cup of Dragon Pearl’s Green in my Ingenuitea, which turned out to be a very good choice. I have heard other tea drinkers comment about the leaves “dancing”, but have never quite experienced anything that I would call similar to this before. But, this particular tea’s leaves were no doubt gracefully dancing throughout the entire brew time. The leaves did not open up nearly as large as some of the green teas that I have tried lately, but they were certainly quite entertaining to view! I’m sure that other teas I have had in the past have behaved in a similar manner, but on this day, this tea, I actually took the time to “stop and watch the tea leaves!”
After having my tea epiphany of sorts, I was actually quite looking forward to my first taste. The tea leaves themselves had a very delicate, almost nutlike aroma, which was extremely difficult to ascertain once brewed. The coloring of the tea was very light, which actually matched the taste. What taste I could identify fell a little too far into the grassy tasting category for me. It was certainly not a bad cup of green tea, but there was nothing exceptional (other than the dancing leaves) to make me want another cup.
