Lake Mist | First Flush Longjing
Lake Mist | First Flush Longjing
An authentic expression of West Lake heritage. Sourced from Meijiawu—one of the region's historic tea villages—this First Flush Longjing is harvested from 60-year-old Quntizhong heirloom bushes, the original cultivar from which modern Longjing was bred. Hand-picked when the tender spring buds are just emerging, the leaves are meticulously wok-fired by hand across several rounds to press them flat and seal in their character.
The infusion opens with comforting notes of roasted chestnut, transitions into a sweet, mineral middle, and settles into a fresh green-bean note by the second steep. As you continue to drink, a clean, natural sweetness steadily builds in the aftertaste, making it an incredibly rewarding green tea to sit with.
