About long jing tea
Long Jing is China’s most famous green tea. It is named after the ancient Dragon well in the Xi Hu (West Lake) region of China and is often regarded as the King Tea of China. The true origin of Long Jing is Xi Hu (West Lake). Within Xi Hu, Shi Feng mountain is the highest-ranking terroir for Long Jing. As a historically famous tea, the terroir of Long Jing is strictly defined much like that of Champagne or other fine wines. The best Long Jing comes from Xi Hu, or West Lake, in Hangzhou. Xi Hu Long Jing comes from Zhe Jiang Province most broadly before narrowing it down to Yuezhou, Qiantang, and Xi Hu, with each label describing a smaller area of land. Even within Xi Hu, there is a hierarchy in prestige. The most prestigious village is Lion, followed by Dragon, Cloud, Tiger, and finally Plum. When tea is sold, it is generally marketed as coming from the most prestigious location it can accurately claim. For example, tea from the Lion village in Xi Hu will make that clear on its packaging, but tea from the Plum village will market as Xi Hu Long Jing. The same is true of broader categories as well.
Qiantang Longjing: This tea comes from just outside the Xihu district. It is generally not as expensive as Xihu Longjing.
