Hello fellow Tea Enthusiast,
Yellow Tea
Yellow teas are so called because of the yellow-orange tint that the leaves impart to the water during the steeping process. They are unoxidized, and created in a very different manner from most teas – a process which involves subjecting the leaves to a low heat for several days to create the unique flavor they possess. The result is a cup with a fresh fragrance and a clean, astringent taste.
Yellow tea lies in between white tea and green tea on the tea spectrum, although we believe that its characteristics will remind you more of the White than the Green. In any case, yellow teas are the single rarest variety of tea on earth, and an exceptional treat for the avid tea enthusiast.

Featured Tea
DRAGON’S WELL MING QIANG
The anticipated arrival date for the The Dragon's Well Ming Qiang is the first week of April 2026.
A must try for green tea lovers. Dragon’s Well teas have been famous for centuries, but none are more prized than the Ming Qiang or “before the rains” Lung Ching. The pristine, broadsword-shaped leaves are pale green and produce a bright cup that is also pale, but with a slight greenish tinge. The aroma is delicately sweet, as is the taste.

Seasonal Tea Suggestion
Cherry Blossom - Our Cherry Blossom green tea contains Japanese sencha green tea leaves combined with natural cherry flavoring and bits of dried cherry. The blend was created to honor the Sakura – or Japanese Cherry Blossom Festival – which is going on in parts of Japan at this very instant. In Japan, the Cherry Blossom seems to be the very embodiment of the transient nature of life itself – a blending of sublime beauty coupled with inevitable mortality – making both the blossom, and life, that much more precious.
