Longjing "Dragon Well" Green Tea 2025

A renowned green tea from Hangzhou, with flat, smooth, emerald-olive leaves created by kettle roasting.

The clear, pistachio-hued infusion boasts a vibrant aroma of roasted nuts and seeds. The flavor is buttery and expressive, with notes of fresh orchid blossom, roasted chestnut, cereal, and a soft sweetness.

Temperature: 75–80°C

Teaware: tall glass, fine porcelain

Tip: Brewing in an open glass allows the buttery, nutty profile to be revealed and the flat leaves to dance.
