Comments about Teavana Dragonwell Green Tea:

This is a great tea. It's middle of the road, price-wise, but it is high quality. It has a classic green tea flavor, but it is not overwhelming. It's forgiving if you steep it too long also, in that it doesn't get bitter easily. In my opinion, it's this company's best green tea.

This is one of my most favorite teas. I can drink it all day..it steeps well for 2-3 steepings. And it has a magnificent flavor that sets it apart from other teas that claim to create alertness. It does affect your mental state of being.. so drink with caution! you may become happy after a few sips of this delight!

Comments about Teavana Dragonwell Green Tea:

Dragonwell is amazing! I bought three ounces of it my first trip to a Teavana store. It's perfect for introducing someone to green tea; the taste is subtle but it's very fragrant, it's hard to oversteep it enough to be bitter, and the tea is a pretty light green colour. I drank it the whole time I had a cold, and it made me feel better all day.

This tea is absolutly amazing! A very smooth nutty and sweet flavor. Can be both oversteeped and steeped multiple times and will not become bitter (vegetal flavor is more pronounced after first steep). Great for someone new to green tea

Comments about Teavana Dragonwell Green Tea:

I am usually not a morning person, especially when I have to wake up at 5 am for the opening shift at my job. But since I've started drinking this tea, I feel more awake and happier, and I can do my job better. I hate coffee, so this is the perfect pick me up on those early morning days.

Comments about Teavana Dragonwell Green Tea:

Very light flavor, smooth, vegetal ... but oddly enough, I get an occasional whiff of what I can only describe as boiled chicken. I'll still drink it, but it's unsettling.

Comments about Teavana Dragonwell Green Tea:

This is a excellent green tea. It's only a tad on the vegetal side. Its not like drinking a sencha, or Kukicha. They have more of a grassy taste. It's subtle and smooth. Brew at 175 degrees for about 2 minutes.

I switch off between this and Silver needle white tea. Both are excellent in health and unqiue in taste.

Comments about Teavana Dragonwell Green Tea:

This tea has a sweet nutty flavor. I drink one to two 46-ounce pots of this per day usually, and the second infusion is just as good as the first. There's no need to add any sweeteners, either. Although the tea is very light in color, the flavor profile is hearty and delicious.

Powerful tea with a wonderful flavor.

Comments about Teavana Dragonwell Green Tea:

This tea is a very powerful one. It has a very strong, rich aroma when brewed, and a pleasant sweet aroma when dry (try smelling it before brewing and afterward).

This tea energizes me and lifts my mood considerably. If I am depressed, I find it brings me out of that depression. I use this tea when I need a special experience. This tea does raise my heartrate though so those with heart problems may want to observe some caution when drinking it.

For those who prefer, this tea brews a clear green in color. I brew it at 175F for 2 1/2 to 3 minutes.

Comments about Teavana Dragonwell Green Tea:

This is a very pleasant cup of tea for any time of the day.
I drink several cups throughout the day.
The taste is very dense, yet the gentle flavor profile keeps it from being overwhelming.
This tea is best infused for a very short period of time (less than a minute) and enjoyed from a small cup at moderate temperatures.
