FullChea Longjing (Dragonwell) Green Tea Loose Leaf 250g — Hangzhou Single-Origin, Pan-Roasted

FullChea Longjing (Dragonwell) is a premium loose-leaf green tea from Hangzhou, roasted immediately after harvest to lock in a fresh, sweet, and rounded flavor.

Harvested at the end of April and processed to preserve its color and aroma, this 8.8oz (250g) bag of Longjing showcases the classic qualities that have made Dragonwell tea prized for centuries. The leaves are pan-fired right after picking to halt oxidation, leaving delicate, flat, emerald-green leaves with a toasted, slightly nutty finish. No artificial colors, preservatives, or additives are used—what you get is a single-origin Chinese green tea crafted for clarity, balance, and everyday enjoyment.

What makes FullChea Longjing different from other green teas?

This Longjing is produced in Hangzhou and pan-roasted immediately to retain the leaf's fresh green tone and natural aroma. Processing focuses on preserving whole, tender leaves rather than broken fannings, resulting in a cleaner cup and a lingering, gentle sweetness.

• Harvested late April for peak tenderness and flavor
• Immediate heat treatment to prevent oxidation
• Uniform, flat leaves that brew evenly
• No artificial additives—single-origin production

How should I brew this Dragonwell for the best cup?

Use water just below boiling (about 75–85°C / 170–185°F) and a short steep time to coax out the tea's delicate aromas without bitterness. Multiple short infusions work well since the whole leaves continue to release flavor across brews.

• Leaf quantity: 2–3 grams per 6–8 oz cup
• Water temp: 75–85°C (170–185°F)
• Steep time: 30–90 seconds for first infusion, increase slightly for repeats
• Try 2–4 infusions to explore flavor progression

What tasting notes and mouthfeel should I expect?

Expect a bright, slightly vegetal green tea with a rounded, sweet finish and subtle toasted or roasted undertones—often compared to roasted beans or chestnuts. The texture is smooth and light-bodied, leaving a clean, refreshing aftertaste.

• Aroma: fresh green with toasted highlights
• Flavor: sweet, mildly nutty, and vegetal
• Appearance: clear, pale green-yellow liquor
• Leaf quality: whole, tender, uniformly flat leaves

How is freshness maintained and what should I look for on arrival?

This batch is sourced to reach you soon after the spring harvest to preserve the leaf's color and aroma. On arrival, check for a vibrant green hue to the dry leaves and a fragrant, slightly toasty smell—signs of careful pan-firing and recent processing.

• Look for bright emerald leaves and a clean, roasted scent
• Packaging seals protect from light and moisture
• No artificial flavors or preservatives listed on the label
• Store in a cool, dry place away from strong odors

Who is this for: FullChea Longjing is suited to tea lovers who appreciate single-origin Chinese greens, people exploring traditional pan-fired teas, and anyone seeking a high-quality everyday loose leaf with repeatable, nuanced infusions. It’s also a good match for those who prefer whole leaves and a subtly roasted, sweet profile rather than strong astringency.
