Spring Long Jing

This exquisite Mingqian Dragon Well delights with fragrant notes of delicate lilacs and creamy sweetness. Underlying hints of toasted chestnut, fresh edamame, and warm buttered toast create a complex . It leans floral, nutty and creamy.

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 from the Qun Ti Zhong cultivar. This batch is from the Spring 2026 harvest.

Starts at $100.00 from One River Tea, or about $2.00/g. A 50g package gets you around 8 gongfu sessions at ~6 g each, which works out to about $12.00 per session. Explore more green teas on Teadar.
