The Distinctive Character of Longjing Tea

Longjing Tea delights the senses with a warm, inviting flavor profile featuring notes of sweet milk, sugared beans, and almonds, subtly accented by hints of grape and vine. Its aroma is a luxurious blend of chocolate, vanilla, and tuile, layered with the fruity richness of overripe strawberries. The texture is velvety and smooth, reminiscent of freshly made nut milks, enhancing the tea’s bold yet balanced character.

The secret to its excellence lies in three key factors: perfect timing, tender leaf selection, and frequent harvesting throughout the spring season. Only the finest “one bud, one leaf” or “one bud, two leaves” pickings are used, ensuring a rare and refined experience.

The leaves are shade-dried and hand-shaped during the frying process using ten precise movements, preserving their iconic flat form and delicate flavor. This artisanal method guarantees a tea that is as visually stunning as it is delicious.
