Organic Longjing Green Tea

Queen of Green Tea

Longjing has been grown in Hangzhou, China, for more than a thousand years. It’s the Cadillac of Chinese tea: delicate, highly prized, difficult to harvest and beautiful to drink. Each leaf needs to be grown under just the right conditions, picked in the foggy Zejiang foothills during spring’s first flush, still moist with morning dew. Too much sun and the young buds lose their fragrance. (Obsessive Longjing fans can even taste the day, climate and location of a particular crop.) Longjing’s flavour is mellow and distinctly vegetal: a big mouthful of lush spinach, wet grass and spring chestnuts. 

Origin: China.

Ingredients: Certified Organic Green Tea.

Aroma: Nutty vegetal and fresh cut grass

Serving suggestion: Add 1 teaspoon into a cup (250ml) with hot water (80-85ºC) and brew for 2-3 minutes. Steeping longer intensifies the flavour.

Storage: Store below 18ºC in a dry place, out of light.

Quality Control: Teavision has implemented a very high standard of quality control through its HACCP and ACO accredited facilities to preserve the integrity of all products. *Please keep in mind tea leaf and herbal characteristics can vary from batch to batch, due to sourcing availability and season of the crop
