Steep tea leaves in hot water at 70°c (158°F) to 80°c (176°F) for 1 minute for the first and second brewing. Gradually increase steeping time and temperature for subsequent brewing.

The name Long Jing means "Dragon Well". This is truly a marvellous Green tea and one of the very first tea we offered for sale in TeaSpring. Even though it is not from Xihu area, this Long Jing still brews a cup of perfect tasting tea at a much more affordable price.
