ABOUT FRESH GREEN TEA
Our Long Jing - Dragon Well is sourced from Zheijan province. The unspoiled terroir is ideal for the production of this tea. The best leaves are harvested in the Spring and we exclusively buy our green teas during the Spring harvest.
HOW TO BREW FRESH GREEN TEA
The fresh green leaves are delicate, for best results we recommend you pour the hot water on the side of the cut not over the leaves.
Step 1
Start by heating water to 75-85°C
Step 2
Add 1-3 tbsp per cup of our pure loose-leaf tea per cup (250ml) of water
Step 3
Rinse leaves with heated water. Pour fresh heated water and cover.
Step 4
Let tea infuse for 1-2 minutes.
Step 5
Pour into a cup through a strainer or let the leaves settle at the bottom.
Step 6
Now Enjoy. If the leaves infuse for too long or the water temperature too high the tea may taste bitter
