Taste : Freshness is the first impression to the pallet. A delicate citrus touch offers a clean and inspired feeling to the mouth. Weng Jia Shan Long Jing is the favorite premium Long Jing of Jing Tea Shop. Its typical eggy and subtle nutty flavor is well layered with a fresh tea taste resulting in an elegant combination. The unmissable nutty flavor fragrance is pure, which continues consistently and deeply from the back. The taste is sweet and exquisite that followed by a long lasted “Hui Gan (after taste)”.

Tips : When you brew Chinese green tea in a gaiwan, always leave a little bit of tea in the gaiwan between each infusion. This is call “the root” and will allow you to get the best of the green tea.
