Xihu Longjing Zhatou
Green Tea
50g(1.8oz)

Longjing tea is the undisputed king of green teas - it's like the Elvis Presley of the tea world! This famous tea has earned more titles and accolades than a Hollywood A-lister. And with good reason, as it's widely considered one of the most highly esteemed green tea. Longjing, which means "Dragon's Well,” hasbeen cultivated by hardworking Chinese people in the limited area of Xihu Lake for over a thousand years. Picture this: for every batch of "Dragon's Well" tea, only the teeniest, tiniest buds-needles at the top of the shoots are used. That means, it takes a whole lot of manpower and time to collect just one kilogram of this special stuff. And get this - it can take up to 100-200 buds just for one brewing! That's a whole lot of work for just one cup of tea. Dragon’s Well is renowned for its refreshing effect, bright and aesthetic appearance, as well as its unforgettable taste that never gets boring.And now, the moment we've all been waiting for: taste time! A sweet aftertaste indicates that your tea is fresh and brewed to perfection. But be careful not to overdo it - no one wants a sour brew! So, make sure to use the right amount of tea and brew it just right. This limited edition Longjing is a true masterpiece that captures the essence of Chinese tea culture. Its unique leaf shape, resembling pine needles, sets it apart from other types of tea. Personally, we love this tea so much that we could pick it out blindfolded in a tea lineup. But let's be honest, who wouldn't be able to pick out the King of Tea in a crowd?
