With the LONGJING pieces ALMA de LUCE® makes us discovered some of the most powerful legends of the green tea.
Longjing tea, sometimes called by its literal translated name Dragon Well tea, is a variety of pan-roasted green tea from the area of Longjing Village in Hangzhou, Zhejiang Province, China. It is produced mostly by hand and renowned for its high quality. It is the most natural tea class.
Longjing tea received the “seal” of Gong Cha, or imperial tea, in the Qing dynasty by the Kangxi Emperor. Many people still try to duplicate Dragon Well’s flavor and shape, but always have fall short. Tea manufacturers from other regions have managed to copy the shape of the leaf, but never the flavor.
