★★★★★

Dragonwell has always been a favorite. Reasonably priced for such a fine tea, this yields a nutty and rich cup of tea.

★★★★★

I don't think you can go wrong with drognwell. It has a very distinct flavor. I enjoy a cup in the mornning to pick things up.

★★★★☆

Has a good green taste, but is easy to overbrew. I have realized that I prefer more oolong varieties which are more mellow. I like to mix a little green tea with my herbal teas, so this is perfect for that. My favorite green is the genmai cha which is super mellow.

★★★★☆

This was an alright tea. I Would recommend and try this tea again in the future.

★★★★☆

This tea tastes just like the kukicha to me. It has that taste that resembles a freshly mowed lawn on a summer afternoon! When the leaves are dropped in water they unfold into a beautiful rounded leaf.

★★★☆☆

I'm just not a green girl. It's probobly very good, but I can't tell.

★★★★★

Loved this bold green tea. I usually like black teas because they are stronger, but this green is nice to go to when I don't wnat something as strong. This has a lot of good, grassy flavor.

★★★★☆

Great green tea, my family loves it hot. It tastes a bit too grassy for myself.

★☆☆☆☆

just the smell of this one made me gag. it tastes like raw grass boiled in acid. deffinately would NOT recommend.

★★★★★

After receiving a bottled iced tea sample of dragonwell with another order from Adagio that I placed, I decided to purchase it to make hot tea from. It is most wonderful! It's become a daily drinker...

★★★★★

Great green tea. I would describe it as strong but smooth. Good green tea for making ice tea. The leaves are cool looking. Needle like

★★★★★

This is my new favorite green tea. I recomend this tea for anyone who has not has green tea before and wants to try. Love the smokey flavor.

★★★★☆

A very good green tea, but not outstanding. I admit I ordered the sample for the name.

★★★★★

Great Tasting tea, probably the best tasting Chinese green tea, love the smoky after taste

★★★★☆

This is a very good chinese green with a distinctive flavor that is difficult to describe. So it's great for a special occasion, but for everyday I prefer one of the japanese varieties.

★★★★★

I liked this the best of the green teas I sampled. I wanted it for the health benefits. I am reordering one pound.

★★★★★

This tea is absolutely wonderful. So light, but with such full flavor. Definitely a favorite!

★★★★☆

A good grean tea, simple, and hard to oversteep, great for everyday drinking.

★★★★★

it's the best tea iv ever had!!!

★★★★★

One of my favorites. Full, green flavor and aroma, is not necessary to use a lot to get a great cup of tea.

★★★☆☆

Appealing color. The flavor of the tea is basic with no distinct flavors.

★★★★☆

A must try for green tea lovers. I find this delicate green tea invigorating.

★★★★★

This is a superb tea! There are higher grades available, but for the money you will be hard-pressed to find a comparable value! I order this frequently. Be sure to steep it for only 3 minutes because this is one of those green teas that can turn very bitter if left sitting.

★★★★☆

This is my second favorite green tea. If you over-seep the tea like I often do it doesn't turn nasty on you. The smell is very strong and lovely. The flavor has the typical slight bitterness, but is not as overwhelming as most green teas. Very nice!

★★★★★

Great green tea. Delicate flavor. Better than the other greens (sencha premier..) I tried.

★★★★★

Perfect for mornings when a black tea won't do. Sometimes a mellow, flavorful, good green tea is more appropriate than a black tea that may have an astrigent effect on your tongue.

★★★★☆

Pretty good tea. Unique taste and smell. This tea brews a light cup.

★★★★☆

This is my favorite green, with it's mild flavor. It's very relaxing when I'm home evenings and want more than one cup of tea. Very drinkable.

★★★★★

One of the best tasting green teas. Not too stong. This tea always calms me down and has a very aromatic taste.

★★★★★

Excellent, just like we had in Hangzhou China where beautiful West Lake is located!

★★★★★

Not just a heathy choice for tea, but also a wonderful flavor! I have thouroughly enjoyed this tea. The flavor is nice and light, and not at all bitter.

★★★★★

Intriguing aroma, delicate taste, good anytime. Makes you feel like a China gourmet.

★★★★★

This is my favorite green. This is a Man's tea. Most women seem not to like it in my experience. Great light smoky'ish taste, and abundant green tea flavor. Perfect after breakfast/before lucnh tea. Really makes you feel healthy.

★★★★☆

This is a great "every day" tea. Good solid flavor.

★★★★☆

To me, a basic green tea. Doesn't knock me out, doesn't offend me. Doesn't have the grassiness that I sometimes dislike.

★★★★★

One very nice everyday tea. For those of us with lesser budgets it's not too expensive, but the sublime sweet flavor and attractive aroma make it very satisfying.

★★★☆☆

This was my first venture into green tea, and I think it wasn't the best one. Tastes a lot like grass to me :) I want to get the full benefit of green tea, but it is a flavor that takes getting used to.

★★★★★

Excellent. Best green tea I have ever tried.

★★★★★

I loved this tea and I'm ordering more! A great, smooth, sort of toasty flavor.

★★★★★

Get's you going in the morning. Real pick up!

★★★★★

This is excellent quality and taste for the dollar. I have tried both Sencha Premier and Gyokuro which are much more expensive and there is not a noticeable difference.

★★★★☆

This tea was very clean tasting and delicate, pretty color too, a nice change from my usual sencha overture.

★★★★★

Very good, also. I think I prefer the Sencha to the Dragonwell, but both are nice

★★★★★

Excellent, my favorite green, good at night

★★☆☆☆

Found it to be rather bitter and reminiscent of grass cuttings. Not my cup of tea.

★★★☆☆

I am sure this is an excellent tea, I just don't have the taste buds for it. I just can't seem to get use to the taste of Green Tea! I will stick with Casablanca Twist to get the health benefits without the Green tea taste.

★★★★★

Good, simple, clean aroma and flavor.

★★★★☆

Light but satisfying.

★★★★☆

very good hot tea for a wake-up in the morning. i am new to the green tea world, so i don't have much to compare against, but i liked it. high quality, too; can be used over and over.

★★★★★

A good tasting tea first thing in the morning. Not too strong. It can be infused up to three times without going bitter.
