The story:
This year’s Long Jing green tea is a real treasure! Strolling around Xi Hu (West Lake) you can smell the sweet tea flourishing. Legend has it that Long Jing (meaning Dragon Well) should be made with water from the ancient spring it¡¯s named after. Don’t worry, it’s a great tea even made with your local water!

♥ Skilled tea masters pluck only the delicate, whole leaves in the Spring
♥ Indulgently refreshing
♥ Sweet chestnutty, moreish
♥ A real treasure – share it with a friend!

The aroma is quite like chestnuts – nutty and sweet, with just a hint of vegetation.

Smooth and light, fresh with notes of vegetables, nuts and butter. YUM!
