Product Description

Dragonwell tea is a variety of pan-fired green tea that comes from Longjing village, near Hangzhou, in Zhejiang province in China.

It is made entirely by hand, in small batches, and is classed as a ‘Famous’ China Tea. This tea was used as a tribute tea for the Chinese Emperor Kangxi (1654 – 1722) during the Qing Dynasty. It has a delightfully complex, lingering flavour that is highly sought after by many connoisseurs.
