Jade Snail

Adagio Teas – Jade Snail Tea

Adagio Teas Jade Snail Tea is a tightly rolled green tea with complex smokey and crisp flavors that is good for multiple infusions.

Jade Snail is a Chinese green tea made up of tightly rolled fuzzy buds that resemble spiral shells or the scroll of a violin. While steeping, they unfurl to deliver intricate notes of roasted nuts, soft smokiness, and a hop-like crispness. As it fades, a dry white grape character lingers. Our Jade Snail green tea is intriguingly delicate and bold.

Carefully hand-rolled, this tea unfurls when exposed to heated water to release its delightfully crisp and smokey flavor, which gives the water a rich color and aroma. Jade Snail works equally well in standard and clear teapots for this reason. This tea is delicious with honey and lemon or on its own. Enjoy a cup of this delightful tea today.

Fresh From Origin
Escargot is a French term meaning “edible snail” and refers to any number of snail species eaten worldwide. High in protein, they have been enjoyed since prehistoric times, with Romans even considering them a food reserved for the elite. Today, most snails are cooked with herbs and a broth or wine before being served in their shells, though the kinds of herbs and sauces vary from country to country. Or, you could just enjoy a nice cup of tea, no real snails (or jade) needed.
