Our China Lung Ching Green tea, is from the eastern province of Zhejiang, which is famous for Lung Ching tea. This tea has been grown at the western lake Xihu near the city of Lonjing ever since the time of the Tang dynasty. The top quality is carefully dried by hand in pans after wilting and thus receives a flat, emerald-green leaf.

- The delicious meatiness of roasted eggplant; with similar steamed bok choy and toasted walnut flavors as in the aromas. Some vegetal sweetness of spring clover.

Peter Lanier –
Great flavor, earthy and mildly sweet.

Incredibly nice tea. Not very vegetal; it’s there but pretty minor. What vegetal note it has leans slightly sweet. But what really shines is the meatiness as stated in the description, as there’s definitely a savoriness to it. Brewed it ~78ºC for 3 minutes, drank it straight after about a 30-minute cooloff, as I can’t drink anything that’s hot (say, over 40ºC). Nevertheless, this is a very nice green tea that I’d recommend to new tea drinkers who want to start drinking higher-quality loose-leaf.
