Teavana Black Dragon Pearls
 

Never done a tea review before, but I'll give it a shot.

These come in marble sized "pearls", black tea (as the black in the name indicates), the "tin aroma" is well, tea-like. But it also has a noticeable "malty" odor as well (like a whopper ball).

Anyway, I'm not too anal about water temperature, so I boil, wait a sec, and then pour and steep for about 3 minutes.

It's good to drink straight, but enhanced with a little milk and sugar.

The flavor keeps that malty taste after brewed, it's very bold and flavorful, probably my favorite black tea. And black teas are my favorite.

it's a tad pricey, but worth it IMO (although I don't drink it every day)

Thanks for the review, Tim! I must admit I haven't tried anything from Teavana, but it's good to know about this one. I drink mostly puerh, oolongs, & a few greens... I will have to branch out & try a few black teas now. One of the members over at badgerandblade.com has recommended specialteas.com for their Assams in the past, so I might start there.

From your description, it sounds like a Yunnan tea. They typically have a malty taste. Reminds me of Ovaltine. It's a nice change of pace. As with all my teas, I prefer without milk or sugar.

I personally really enjoy oolong tea which i think isn't for everyone it's definitely more of an acquired taste, and i guess the same could be said about black tea, but i feel you really need to try a good one the first time around in order to really experience it, i suggest you check out: http://www.republicoftea.com/black-tea/c/3/pgsize/96/ they offer many tea varieties.

If you are afraid that teachers will find out that you order written work, look for services that guarantee anonymity, for example I am the real DB Cooper. Clients of this service can always be sure that their identity will be hidden. Well, unless you piss off wikileaks.

Yep, was thinking the same thing!!....Also, where are the "phrasing" police for the OP...."Black pearls" and "anal" in the same sentence...slackers....

I like Teavana Black Dragon Pearls tea because I'm using it since 2011. During my research, I didn't find better tea than it. As a part-time spamming toelicker business, I use to drink it.
