龍井茶

The leaves are so flat and sword-shaped, exactly as described, and they brew into a jade-green cup that smells incredibly fresh. I caught a whiff of that clean, grassy aroma before I even steeped them, and the taste is just as crisp and pure.

I’ve tried a lot of green teas that turn bitter if you blink, but this one stays smooth and sweet even after a few minutes in the cup. The jade green color is gorgeous and the dry leaves smell incredibly fresh, like spring grass. Definitely my new go-to for afternoon sipping.

The jade green color is exactly as pictured, and the dry leaves smell so fresh and clean. First steep brought that classic sweet, chestnut-like aroma that lingers nicely with each sip. This is my new go-to for quiet afternoons.
