Overview
Tip: start at ~95°C, then adjust down 3–5°C if it turns sharp.
Pairing: sushi, steamed vegetables, or citrusy salads
Pan-fired in a hot wok and flattened by hand, Dragonwell (also known as "Long Jing) is for many the most famous green tea. The best comes from Hangzhou, near the spring where a dragon was said to dwell. We prize its pale emerald color and slightly sweet, chestnut-like taste.
