Origin
Red Dragon Pearls (Also known as ‘Black Dragon Pearl Tea’) are originated from Fengqing, Yunnan. It’s believed to be the birthplace of tea, and the oldest wild grown tea tree discovered is about 1,700 years old. Yunnan’s most senior cultivated tree is a relative youngster – a mere 800 years old. These are the large leaf tea varieties – Camellia Sinensis Assamica – which is also cultivated in India. Yunnan also has the distinction of producing more black tea than any other part of China, although it’s a relative newcomer to this variety. Black tea was first produced here in 1939, and is distinguished by its unique peppery, earthy and sometimes cacao-like flavor.
