When thinking about the most famous green tea from China, Dragon Well topped the list. Green tea is largely unoxidized. The oxidation of Chinese green tea is controlled by using the pan-firing method. Perhaps most of the green tea in the world tries to pan-fire green tea to copy the style and tradition of Dragon Well.

This pan-firing method keeps the "juice' within the leaf while driving the moisture out of the leaf. The tea master then presses and flattened each leaf by hand. A time-consuming effort that only an experienced tea maker can accomplish. As a result of the pan-firing, Dragon Well is, especially nutty, vegetal, and umami. A great tea to drink in the morning. 

This Dragon Well green tea is truly unique. Sourced from the most famous place for Dragon Well Longjing green tea. This handpicked green tea is very rare and only able to be harvested around 20 kg a year. We are fortunate to be able to carry such quality green tea.

Dragonwell

100 ml gaiwain. 190F because I hate burning my tongue... Lots of fuzz on the packaging. Harder to see it on the actual leaf until you dump some out. The aroma isn't quite there but I think that is just the odor-absorbing packet doing its job. The leaf is finely pressed. A perfect flat leaf. A mix of olive green hues. Ooo I love the aroma coming from the infusing leaf. Man, it's been a while since I've had a Dragonwell. The difference between the steaming and the pan frying is so amazing. The notes are closer to the toasty notes found in a hojicha with a springtime greenness to it. Also notes of hay and a note that reminds me of a hard noodle.
