Xi Hu Long Jing, also known as Dragonwell tea, is known as the “King Tea of China”. The original bushes that grew this tea were given imperial status by Emperor Kangxi of the Qing Dynasty in China because of their exceptional taste, and Long Jing is still grown in that exact region today. The tea leaves are distinguished by their long, pressed shape and emerald color. The savory and earthy base notes pair well with honey top notes and a silky mouthfeel that make this tea worthy of its legendary imperial status.

This was such a beautiful green tea! I love the flavor of this one! It has a toasty, earthy flavor that mellows into a gentle honey-like sweetness. It's so smooth with no astringency or bitterness. I enjoyed every sip of this tea! I will definitely need to get more of this one, highly recommend!

A very good basic green tea. The leaves look a bit like flattened pine needles, but they plump up in the hot water. Do NOT boil this tea! You can steep a little extra, but do not use boiling water.
