Production of green tea in China is unique, and has taken centuries to perfect. Four very different versions come together in this delicious sampler. Each sample makes about 8-10 cups of tea. This set includes:
dragonwell - Inviting, toasty aroma and sweet rounded flavor. Nutty, buttery texture, pleasantly dry finish.
gunpowder - These leaves are hand-rolled into tiny pellets, and yield a full-bodied cup with a hint of smokiness.
white monkey - Warm colored liquor with a fresh, almost wildflower sweet scent and slightly dry finish.
sleeping dragon - Has a soft, fruity sweetness enfolded by a rich, smoky note similar to gunpowder, but more complex and crisp.

“ I love all the green teas of China and this is a great variety of 4 of the green teas from China. I enjoy all of these teas. dragonwell is my favorite and is a nutty buttery flavor that I love. Gunpowder would be second, if I had to rate these teas, but I do enjoy all of them. Dragonwell and Gunpowder are stronger in flavor than the White Monkey. White monkey reminds me of what Jasmine tea would taste without Jasmine. It is gentle and subtle in flavor. Sleeping dragon is more like gunpowder. Overall, this is a great buy to get a start on tasting some of the well known high quality teas from China. The box is a beautiful eye catching decoration on my tea bar. The only way this would be better is if the bags somehow filled themselves up again! All steeped at 180 for 2-3 min. ”

“ Sleeping Dragon, Dragonwell and Gunpowder are wonderful. White Monkey is too tame for my taste. I take my tea straight - no sugar, honey or milk - and prefer a robust flavor. I recommend this set for anyone who wishes to sample some really good green teas. ”
