Nestled in Hangzhou's hills, Longjing tea plantations yield the famed "Dragon Well" tea. Harvested with care, its leaves and buds create a fresh, grassy tea with a sweet, nutty note. Hangzhou's unique climate – characterized by mild temperatures, abundant rainfall, and fertile soil – provides the ideal environment for Longjing tea to flourish. The mist-laden air and the pristine waters of West Lake infuse the tea leaves with a distinct character, making every cup a journey through the region's rich natural heritage.
