Gold Award–winning Xi Hu Long Jing is a masterpiece from the protected West Lake region in Hangzhou. Harvested in early spring and hand-fired by veteran tea artisans, every leaf reflects centuries of craftsmanship and terroir.
This prestigious Gold-tier Long Jing stands out for its flat jade-green leaves, clean sweetness, and silky texture. On the palate, it opens with a soft roasted chestnut note, followed by layers of orchid aroma and a calm vegetal clarity that only true West Lake Long Jing can deliver. The finish is smooth, lingering, and elegantly refreshing.
Recognised with a Gold Award, this tea represents the highest standard of Long Jing excellence — celebrated for purity, exceptional leaf shape, balanced umami, and outstanding flavour clarity.
