Our Dragonwell brews up a light jade-colored liquor with a slightly sweet, soft flavor. The tea is delightfully fresh and vegetal. In China, this tea is considered to have a cooling effect and is frequently served in hot weather. Dragonwell is China's most revered famous tea and comes from Hangzhou in Zhejiang Province. Also known as Lung Ching or Longjing, this classic tea is pan-fired in wood charcoal-stoked woks. The skilled artisans press the leaves against the sides of the wok and turn them repeatedly until they obtain their unique flat appearance.
