About This Tea

★★★★★ Verified Buyer

"This is a quite decent oolong for a reasonable price. It has the fragrant orchid-floral aroma when brewed that lasts through the first two brewing nicely. I was able to get a drinkable 3rd brewing from it. Love the flavor and experience. Now, this is a real tea experience. Thank you for a quality product."

💰 Less than $0.45 per cup — pearls reward multiple infusions. Many customers get three quality brewings from a single pour as the rolled leaves slowly unfurl.

👉 Hand-rolled pearls. Each pearl is shaped by hand from whole leaves picked just before winter dormancy — a rare green-oolong style you won't find from most Nepal producers. The 2.4 oz bag yields ~34 cups.

Hand-picked just before winter dormancy in the Jasbirey valley below Sandakphu in Nepal's Ilam district, and rolled into compact pearls by small-batch tea makers, Green Pearls is a rare green oolong — lightly oxidized so it keeps the freshness of green tea while gaining the orchid-floral aroma and silky mouthfeel of partial-oxidation oolong. The pearls unfurl slowly in your cup, releasing layered notes of orchid, taro, and wheat against a clean, lightly sweet finish.

A natural fit for drinkers who want something between green tea and traditional oolong — more aromatic than green, lighter and brighter than medium-oxidation oolongs like Annapurna Amber. The pearl form rewards multiple infusions; many customers get three quality brewings from a single pour.
