This is an early spring harvest of beautiful hand-picked, hand-produced, organic green tea. It features a rich, nutty flavour and yields a clear, yellow-green infusion.  History Dragon Well or Long Jing (龙井 in simplified Chinese |  龍井 in traditional Chinese) is one of the most famous styles of green tea in China. It originated in Hangzhou's West Lake region, in today's Zhejiang Province, China. There are two cultivars used for the vast majority of this tea:  - "Bendi" (or native) is the oldest, heirloom cultivar. - "43" is a younger cultivar, developed in the latter part of the 20th century, and is commonly used to improve yields.  This particular batch of Dragon Well tea comes from the fabled Yellow Mountain, in Anhui province.
