Dragon Well Tea--Longjing Tea

当年龙井承皇恩，
御笔一挥天下闻。
从此倩影杯中舞，
茶韵悠长如缤纷。
费尽笔墨写华章，
留芳盛世溢千门。
如今小桥流水处，
丝竹声里听黄昏。

This is China's most famous tea and simply the best of all Long Jing variety. Xi Hu Long Jing has more than a thousand years of recorded history and was mentioned in the first ever tea book (Cha Ching) by Lu Yu during the Tang Dynasty. So popular that even Queen Elizabeth II, former US President Richard Nixon, and Henry Kissinger once tasted this tea during their visit to China.

Xi Hu is now a protected area. Only the leaves picked within the designated 168 sq km of Xi Hu area can be considered as Xi Hu Long Jing. To ensure its authenticity, we will provide a coded anti-fake labelissued by Hang Zhou's Quality Control Department (for 100 grams and above only).

West Lake Dragonwell, Xi Hu Lung Ching
