Organic Premium Dragon Well (Long Jing) Green Tea

Elegant, smooth, and deeply rooted in Chinese tea tradition, Organic Premium Dragon Well—known as Long Jing (龙井)—is one of China’s most celebrated green teas and a symbol of refined simplicity.

Famous for its flat emerald-green leaves and beautifully clean flavour, this premium loose-leaf tea offers a delicate balance of chestnut sweetness, fresh vegetal notes, and a smooth, lingering finish. Light yet deeply satisfying, Dragon Well is a tea chosen for clarity, calm, and everyday ritual.

Often considered the benchmark of premium Chinese green tea, Long Jing delivers a cup that feels both luxurious and grounding—perfect for slow mornings, focused afternoons, and quiet moments of reflection.

Origin

This Organic Premium Dragon Well is grown in Zhejiang Province, China, the historic home of authentic Long Jing tea and one of the most respected green tea regions in the world.

Dragon Well tea has been produced in Zhejiang for centuries, particularly around the Hangzhou region, where mineral-rich soil, misty hills, and a mild climate create ideal growing conditions for exceptional green tea.

This tea is made from carefully selected organic spring harvest leaves, chosen for their tenderness, sweetness, and refined flavour profile.

The result is a tea that reflects both place and craftsmanship—fresh, balanced, and unmistakably elegant.

How It Is Made

Unlike steamed Japanese green teas, Dragon Well is traditionally pan-fired by hand, a method that gives Long Jing its signature roasted chestnut aroma and smooth, mellow body.

Freshly harvested tea leaves are carefully heated in large woks to stop oxidation and preserve their green tea character. During this process, skilled tea artisans gently press and shape the leaves into Long Jing’s iconic flat, sword-like appearance.

This pan-firing technique creates the tea’s distinctive flavour—soft vegetal freshness layered with warm nutty sweetness and a clean, silky finish.

The craftsmanship is subtle but precise, producing a tea that feels effortless in the cup while requiring extraordinary skill behind the scenes.
