Award-Winning "Dragon Well" Long Jing Green Tea

Known for its unique flat and smooth leaves, Dragon Well stands out from other green teas with its sweet aftertaste and nutty flavor. Our "Dragon Well" Green Tea received the Gold Medal at 'The Golden Leaf Awards' in 2019, distinguishing itself among other notable teas. 

This exceptional tea hails from a region renowned for its pristine environment and rich tea-growing heritage, where traditional methods of cultivation and harvesting are preserved. The culture and traditions of this area are deeply interwoven with the art of tea-making, ensuring that tea reflects the area's natural purity.

"Dragon Well" is crafted through a rigorous process all within one day. It begins with the early morning harvest, where leaves are handpicked to ensure the highest quality. The leaves are then gently withered to reduce moisture before being swiftly pan-fired and shaped. This method preserves the delicate substances within the leaves, enhancing their flavor and aroma.

The resulting tea is a testament to the craftsmanship involved in its production. The leaves typically feature one bud with one to two leaves, showcasing a blend of dark yellow and soft green hues. Once steeped, the tea presents a clear, green-yellow liquor, exuding a light scent of roasted beans and fresh blossoms. Its taste is both refreshing and invigorating, marked by undertones of roasted chestnut that define a truly remarkable "Dragon Well" experience.

For an optimal experience, we suggest steeping this tea in a tall glass, a method that not only allows you to enjoy the aesthetic pleasure of watching the leaves unfurl but also enhances the extraction of the tea’s subtle flavors. This visual spectacle has been cherished since ancient times, often inspiring poets and artists who frequented the imperial courts to create works that continue to captivate us.

Enjoy the depth and richness of our award-winning Long Jing, a green tea that not only delights the palate but also captures the essence of its storied origin.
