Lung ching tea, also called lung jing or Dragon Well, is a green tea from China's Zhejiang province. Many legends surround the name Dragon Well. One of them tells of a dragon living in a spring near Hangzhou. It offered rain to a village after a prayer was addressed to it, thus enabling the cultivation of this exceptional tea.
The lung ching tea is wok-dried to stop the oxidation of the leaves.

To preserve the aromas and flavor of our organic product, water temperature and steeping time are crucial. Here are our preparation tips for a cup of green tea that is both smooth and delicious.
Use between 12 to 15 grams of product per liter of water. For a better experience, use an empty tea bag, an infuser, or a tea ball to steep your tea leaves.
Heat the water until it reaches a temperature of 70 to 80°C. Then pour the hot water into your cup and let your green tea steep for 1 minute 30 to 2 minutes maximum. Green tea needs less steeping time than black tea, rooibos, and white tea.
