Introducing our third-year collaboration with our friend Doreen, whose family hails from Li Jia Wu in the prestigious Xi Hu district. We're thrilled to present one of the most premium West Lake Dragon Well (Xi Hu Long Jing) Green teas available outside of China. Handpicked before the Qing Ming Festival and the rainy spring season (4th April), this exquisite Ming Qian Long Jing offers an unparalleled tea experience for the discerning palate.

Xi Hu Dragon Well is a variety of pan-roasted green tea from specific areas within Hangzhou, Zhejiang Province. The tea leaves are flat in shape and once they jump into the water, you can see them dancing freely in a glass cup. Freshness is king when it comes to green tea, and this applies especially to Dragon Well. Sometimes you open a good bag of roasted coffee beans and get indulged in its tempting aroma: think of Dragon Well as the green tea version of that brown coffee aroma.

It is a very delicate tea and produced mostly by hand. Renowned for its uniqueness and rareness, it tops the list of “10 Most Famous Chinese Teas”. Its high caffeine content makes it a pleasant and refreshing choice for all occasions.

Because of the limited time period that the quantity for this first flush is scarce, especially the ones that are from the core production areas in the famous Long Jing Village in Hangzhou. Cha Moods work directly with the tea family in the Li Jia Wu, ensuring this rare beauty is brought with minimal time and complexity to your home.

Na de oogst worden de bladeren ongeveer een halve dag gedroogd om hun rauwe grassige smaak te verminderen en om de hoeveelheid vocht te verminderen voordat de boeren ze verzamelen om ze voorzichtig in de pan te bakken.
