Dragon Well

Dragon well is a renowned green tea with distinguishing broad and flat leaves. With its gentle sweet fragrance, delicate, clean, chestnut-like taste and cloudless jade green colour, it is an extraordinary and unique green tea.

Although first documented during the Tang dynasty (610-907), it was in the 17th century when Dragon Well (龍井茶) was given the status of Imperial Tea by the Chinese Qing dynasty emperor Kangxi. The highest grade tea was reserved solely for the Imperial household. Originally produced in China's Zhejiang province, the traditional methods of harvesting and production have now spread. This excellent Formosa Dragon Well has all the characteristics of the Imperial Tea.
