Appearance

True to its reputation, Long Jing Dragon Well is known for its flat-leaf appearance, a signature look that sets it apart from other green teas.

Brewing Tips

1. Select Quality Water: Use spring or filtered water to bring out the best in your Dragon Well tea. Heat the water to a temperature between 160°F and 180°F (70°C to 82°C). This range is ideal for preserving the delicate flavors and aromas of green tea.
2. Measure Accurately: For a 6oz serving, use approximately one teaspoon (3g) of tea leaves. The exact amount can vary based on the size and density of the leaves; for denser teas, about one teaspoon is sufficient, while larger-leaf varieties might require up to two tablespoons.
3. Steep Mindfully: Steep the tea for 1-3 minutes, depending on your taste preference. The shorter steeping time will yield a lighter, more delicate flavor, while a longer steeping time will bring out a richer, more robust taste. Remember, it’s the taste that matters, not the color.
4. Customize Your Experience: Feel free to experiment with the steeping time, amount of tea, and water temperature to create a brew that suits your personal taste. Dragon Well tea is known for its ability to handle multiple infusions, with each subsequent steeping revealing new layers of flavor. Simply lengthen the steeping time slightly for each additional infusion.

Indulge in the timeless elegance of Long Jing Dragon Well, a tea that embodies the essence of Chinese tea culture. Let each cup be a journey into the past, a connection to the traditions and flavors that have been cherished for centuries. Enjoy the exquisite taste of this extraordinary tea, and make every moment a special occasion.
