User’s snapshot

This tea is best enjoyed at a warm temperature. Those who try to drink it hot are missing the nuances of this most excellent tea. Dragonwell is my favorite green tea because of it\'s unique, smooth, interesting taste. It doesn\'t surprise me at all that at one time, this tea was made specifically for the Emperor and Empress of China.

User’s snapshot

I am an avid tea drinker - 1 to 2 pots a day. This is the best loose tea I have ever ordered. Wonderful flavor, even unsweetened. I highly recommend this tea. I just ordered 2 more packs.

Description

The highest grade of green teas are made from tender tea shoots picked early spring. These young tea shoots may consist of a single terminal bud, a bud with an adjacent leaf or a bud with two adjacent slightly unfurled leaves. It is generally required that the leaves are equal in length or shorter than the buds.

Green tea steeping time and temperature varies with different tea. The steeping temperatures are 81 to 87 °C (178 to 189 °F) water and the steeping times 1-2.5 minutes. In general, lower-quality green teas are steeped hotter and longer, while higher-quality teas are steeped cooler and shorter. Steeping green tea too hot or too long will result in a bitter, astringent brew, regardless of the initial quality. High-quality green teas can be and usually are steeped multiple times; two or three steepings is typical.
