China Lung Ching also known as Dragonwell or Long Jing tea was awarded the highest possible title: “Tea of the Emperor”. Its taste gives you an idea why. It is light, smooth on the palate and has some nutty notes and slight mineral qualities, without losing the classical green tea character.

Where does the name enchanting Dragonwell come from? Legend says that the lakes close to the village where the tea is grown were home to a mystical dragon. It was also said that if you peered into the village well you would see the face of this magical creature looking back at you. To see a dragon is considered extremely lucky in Chinese culture, and this tea makes us feel very blessed indeed.

Lung Ching is a top quality tea, carefully dried by hand the leaves are pressed against the sides of a heated pan. You can see this in the appearance of the large flat emerald coloured green leaves. A well loved and distinctive tea which is renowned throughout the world. A real must try for lovers of fine green teas.
