Longjing Green Tea 101

Dragon Well · 龙井

Longjing is one of China’s most recognizable green tea styles.

Its signature feature is its distinctive leaf shape:

Flat · Smooth · Green

Unlike rolled or twisted teas, Longjing leaves are flattened during processing, creating the elegant appearance associated with this classic tea style.

This Hangzhou Qiantang Longjing brings together that characteristic flat leaf form with a fresh aroma, mellow taste and gentle sweetness.

Flat Leaf · Fresh Character · Gentle Sweetness

What Does “Bean-Like Aroma” Mean?

In Chinese tea tasting, Longjing is often associated with a characteristic known as:

豆香

For customers unfamiliar with this expression, it does not mean beans are added to the tea.

Instead, it describes a naturally warm vegetal aroma that may remind you of:

Fresh Beans · Soft Green Notes · Gentle Chestnut-Like Warmth

This subtle warmth sits beneath the fresher green character and gives the tea greater depth.
