This is truly a marvellous Green tea and one of the very first tea we offered for sale in TeaSpring.\n   \u003cbr\u003eEven though it is not from Xihu area, this Long Jing still brews a cup of perfect tasting tea at a much more affordable price.\n   \u003cbr\u003eLung Ching tea, also called \"Dragon's Well,\" grows near the beautiful West Lake of Hangzhou on the only true tea \"plantation\" in China. A\n   \u003cbr\u003egovernment-run business, the Lung Ching Tea Plantation is a popular tourist destination. The teas are described as being \"...meticulously\n   \u003cbr\u003emanufactured from the youngling buds and the tenderest leaves sprouting in the spring season.\" (Though, of course, tea is picked there at\n   \u003cbr\u003emany times of the year.) There are many grades of Lung Ching tea, but all are distinguished by their flat, smooth appearance; emerald green color;\n   \u003cbr\u003efresh, fragrant aroma; and mellow, slightly sweet taste. Special Preparation\n   \u003cbr\u003eLongjing tea is grown in the Longjing mountain area of Hangzhou, southwest of the West Lake. The fertile land is both rich in phosphorus and\n   \u003cbr\u003esub-acidic sand. This region prevents the cold current from the north and holds back the warm current from the south, thus the growing area of\n   \u003cbr\u003eLongjing tea can be coated by cloud and mist for long periods of time. With such favorable growing conditions, needless to say, Longjing tea is\n   \u003cbr\u003econsidered the best tea in China.\n   \u003cbr\u003e\n   \u003cbr\u003eThe tea has a long history; more than 1000 years. Its earliest record may be found in the book named chajing, the first book on tea in the world,\n   \u003cbr\u003ewritten by the Chinese expert of the Tang Dynasty (618-907), Lu Yu. Longjing tea was not given its name until the Southern Song Dynasty. Hangzhou\n   \u003cbr\u003eas the capital of the country carried out further development in tea production. Knowledge of the tea began to spread and became known all over the\n   \u003cbr\u003ecountry by the times of the Yuan and Ming Dynasties.\n   \u003cbr\u003e\n   \u003cbr\u003eEspecially in the Qing Dynasty, the fame of Longjing tea became widespread throughout the country. One of the most remarkable emperors of the Qing\n   \u003cbr\u003eDynasty, Qianlong, paid four visits to the growing area of Longjing tea, not only to enjoy sipping tea, and to write and sing poems to praise the tea,\n   \u003cbr\u003ebut also to watch the process of picking and roasting it with serious intent. He was so interested in Longjing tea that he named the eighteen tea trees\n   \u003cbr\u003ein front of the Hugong Temple \"royal tea\". From that time forward, the tea became increasingly popular for everyone.\n   \u003cbr\u003e\n   \u003cbr\u003eBy the early 20th century, Longjing tea was witnessing its highest popularity in history. The Chinese government has made a great effort to promote it and\n   \u003cbr\u003eintroduce advanced technology in planting, picking and roasting of the tea since the founding of the People's Republic of China in 1949. Subsequently, a high\n   \u003cbr\u003equality standards system for tea grading was set up. All these innovations contributed to the standardization of the tea production.\n   \u003cbr\u003e\n   \u003cbr\u003eAccording to local custom, the right time for picking the tea leaves is very short. The period between Qing Ming and Grain Rain (from April 5 to 21) each\n   \u003cbr\u003eyear is generally considered the prime time to get the highest quality Longjing tea. The brewing method we highly recommended is to put a pinch of dry, roasted\n   \u003cbr\u003etea leaves into a porcelain or transparent glass cup and pour hot water at about 85C into the cup. Sip and enjoy!\n   \u003cbr\u003e\n   \u003cbr\u003eIn conclusion, Longjng tea is famous both because of its good quality, as well as its historical interest and the cultural connotation it has endured. Chinese\n   \u003cbr\u003eLongjing tea has not only the value of tea when it is consumed, but it is also the symbol of cultural values of China.\n  \u003c\/div\u003e\n  \u003c!--M_96613636\/--\u003e\n  \u003clink nonce=\"7rGr3y2tp6HWQGfQwKa1zw==\" rel=\"modulepreload\" crossorigin href=\"https:\/\/ir.ebaystatic.com\/rs\/c\/r1vinode\/_DCXFu3eH.js\"\u003e\n  \u003clink nonce=\"7rGr3y2tp6HWQGfQwKa1zw==\" rel=\"modulepreload\" crossorigin href=\"https:\/\/ir.ebaystatic.com\/rs\/c\/r1vinode\/_BQ6ejkAq.js\"\u003e\n  \u003clink nonce=\"7rGr3y2tp6HWQGfQwKa1zw==\" rel=\"modulepreload\" crossorigin href=\"https:\/\/ir.ebaystatic.com\/rs\/c\/r1vinode\/_I5e_cvjl.js\"\u003e\n  \u003clink nonce=\"7rGr3y2tp6HWQGfQwKa1zw==\" rel=\"modulepreload\" crossorigin href=\"https:\/\/ir.ebaystatic.com\/rs\/c\/r1vinode\/_BN5mInrO.js\"\u003e\n  \u003clink nonce=\"7rGr3y2tp6HWQGfQwKa1zw==\" rel=\"modulepreload\" crossorigin href=\"https:\/\/ir.ebaystatic.com\/rs\/c\/r1vinode\/_BBBPUIS-.js\"\u003e\n  \u003clink nonce=\"7rGr3y2tp6HWQGfQwKa1zw==\" rel=\"modulepreload\" crossorigin href=\"https:\/\/ir.ebaystatic.com\/rs\/c\/r1vinode\/_D7Ct-6yo.js\"\u003e\n  \u003clink nonce=\"7rGr3y2tp6HWQGfQwKa1zw==\" rel=\"modulepreload\" crossorigin href=\"https:\/\/ir.ebaystatic.com\/rs\/c\/r1vinode\/_DNHzd5MO.js\"\u003e\n  \u003c!--M_96613636\/--\u003e","brand":"Buy Our Tea","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":52763610349849,"sku":null,"price":153.3,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0817\/1887\/0297\/files\/s-l1600_54e15cef-1f6a-4b1b-8cab-3af82f6bed01.jpg?v=1783025350","url":"https:\/\/buyourtea.com\/products\/2026-new-chinese-longjing-tea-long-jing-spring-xi-hu-dragon-well-green-tea-500g-2","provider":"Buy Our Tea","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
