Orchid Lung Ching

Flowery Orchid Lung Ching – a hidden gem

The appearance of this adorable tea is very similar to the neighbouring Xi Hu Lung Ching.

Slightly yellow in colour and characterized by great delicacy, the brother from Anhui carries an alluring floral fragrance. To develop this aroma, the buds of the tea leaves have to open up at about the same time as the orchid blossoms on the other side of the mountain.

The spring winds then carry the scent into the tea.

Lung Ching, also known as Dragonwell, is a well known speciality tea from China. It has jade green flat leaves and delicate aroma with a slightly sweet, sometimes nutty taste. The Orchid Lung Ching has the added extra of the scent and flavour of orchids.
