Good tea in a nice tin

I am a big tea drinker for over 20 years. My all time favor is Long Jing (aka Dragon Well). I used to buy directly from China. Logistics was a pain and quality was unpredictable.

They come in with the best vacuum sealed packaging in a cardboard box. Its aroma is slightly faint, but you can smell Long Jing’s distinct aroma. Its leafs are exactly as described, b-grade, which is a few leafs from the bud picked towards mid of the season. Its color is pretty, with slightly dark green from stir-drying. In hot water, you can see more clearly of its leafs’ shapes. These leafs are consistent, healthy and relatively tender.

My New Morning Ritual: This Longjing is Amazing!

Okay, so I'm a bit of a tea snob, I admit it. I've tried countless Chinese teas, and this Longjing Green Tea Varietal Collection (45g) from iTeaWorld is a real winner. The loose leaf tea is exquisite – beautiful, vibrant green leaves. The aroma is just heavenly, delicate and subtly sweet. The taste? Subtle yet complex, a smooth, slightly sweet flavor with a lingering finish. I usually brew it in a small gaiwan with near-boiling water, letting it steep for a minute or two. It's the perfect way to start my morning, maybe with a little bit of honey if I'm feeling fancy. It's so much more refined than the matcha I used to drink; this is a truly sophisticated Chinese tea experience. I've ordered other teas from iTeaWorld before – their service is top-notch – and this is definitely some of the best loose leaf tea I've ever had. Highly recommend!
