Longjing or ‘Dragon Well’ honours the acclaimed water hole outside of Hangzhou, China. Originating from the same region, this blend follows a customary practice where the slender leaves are hand-picked, pressed in a heated wok and eventuate to a flat form. Assembled, this infusion offsets a roasted and savoury scent.

Origin

Green tea

Produced by unfermented leaves of the camellia sinensis plant, green tea does not go through the oxidation process as does Oolong and back tea.
Instead, heat is applied to the leaves to neutralise the oxidative enzymes before oxidation is able to take effect. The resulting liquor of the infused green tea is typically light and pale in colour, often with a green hue.
