Spring Long Jing

This premium pre-rain Long Jing offers a delightful aroma of fresh roasted chestnuts and delicate floral hints. The liquor is bright and clear, unfolding with a smooth, sweet, and nutty taste, balance. It leans nutty, fresh and sweet.

Water around 70–80 °C (158–176 °F). In a mug, steep 2–3 min. For gongfu, use 3–5 g per 100 ml, 15–30 s steeps. You'll get to see how the flavor changes across multiple rounds. The biggest mistake with green tea is using boiling water. Keep it well below that and you won't get bitterness.

Grown in Zhejiang, China. This batch is from the Spring 2025 harvest.

Starts at $25.00 from Bitterleaf Teas, or about $1.00/g. A 25g package gets you around 4 gongfu sessions at ~6 g each, which works out to about $6.00 per session. Explore more green teas on Teadar.
