Introduction
West Lake Longjing, also known as Dragon Well Tea, is one of China's most renowned green teas. Originating from the lush hills surrounding West Lake in Hangzhou, Zhejiang Province, this tea boasts over 1200 years of rich history. The tea leaves are harvested from the tea bushes in early spring and are meticulously hand-processed. The leaves are flat, smooth, and possess a vibrant green color. The flavor profile is characterized by a delicate chestnut aroma, a fresh, brisk taste, and a long-lasting sweet aftertaste.
