Crafted by Xingyang Workshop

Xingyang Workshop was founded by several masters from much larger Xiaguan to revive the ideals of clean, slow meticulous fermentation and small batch blending.
 
Thanks to their 50+ years of connections, Xingyang is able to flex their relationships for some of the best leaf material in Yunnan from wild, single-origin sites.

    Xingyang has been experimenting with blending flowers and fruits with their teas for about ten years. These dragon pearls are an unbelievable expression of craft, finely balanced, and stunning to watch unfold. Each chrysanthemum blossom was blended in fully intact so that its petals open up to reveal black tea, giving the pearls many steepings that start out floral and become deeper and richer with each infusion. Notes of custard cream, cinnamon, chrysanthemum, bergamot and passionfruit with a crisp and elegant texture.

    Each 25g bag contains four pearls.
