About This Product
High Grade Dragonwell is a handcrafted green tea grown in the famous area of Xi Hu (West Lake) near Hangzhou, China. Dragonwell has been an honored tea since the Tang Dynasty. Tea leaves are hand-plucked and then roasted in small quantities in a heated wok. The precise hand movements of the tea maker give the leaves their flat shape and shiny, jade green appearance. This is a tea worthy of searching out spring water for brewing.
Dragonwell teas have a number of grades that denote their quality based on season, and choice of leaf. This batch comprises a high number of leaf tips and has a fresh, balanced green quality to it.
Ingredients: Handcrafted Green Tea
Available only in a 50 gram (1.75 oz) pack. Package sealed at origin to maintain freshness.
