Widely known as “Dragon Well,” Lung Ching is one of China’s “Ten Famous Teas” eagerly awaited each March and April. Meticulously plucked, withered and pan-fired to perfection, this First Grade tea is a masterful achievement of the balance between bitter and sweet. A sunshine yellow infusion presents contrast. Water chestnut resounds and bitter plant undertones give way to a softer, sweeter hint of vanilla.
Preparation: 3 g tea leaves (2 level teaspoons) per 8oz cup of filtered water, boiled and cooled to 70°C/158°F. Allow to brew 2 min.
