Step into centuries of tradition with Dragonwell Green Tea, one of China’s most revered teas. Known as Longjing in Chinese, this brisk and slightly heady tea offers a full-bodied cup with a clean, smooth finish. Its distinctive sword-like leaves are the result of meticulous pan-firing, a traditional method that imparts a subtle toasty character to the tea’s naturally vegetal flavor.

The lore of Dragonwell is as enchanting as its flavor. Named after a legendary well in the West Lake region of Hangzhou, the tea’s origins are steeped in tales of prosperity and luck. According to one story, during the Qing Dynasty, Emperor Qianlong was so enamored with Dragonwell tea that he awarded the tea bushes at the Hu Gong Temple imperial status. Today, this tea remains a symbol of elegance and excellence, offering a taste of history in every sip.
