Dragonwell Green Tea

The Dragonwell (or “Lung Ching” in local parlance) is praised for its four uniqueness- jade color, vegetative aroma, mellow chestnut flavor and singular shape. Its leaves are broad and flat.  Dragonwell tea is refreshingly smooth, sweet and delicate and is among the very best of Chinese greens.

Our 'Dragonwell' is a First Grade version of this truly sublime tea.
