As with our standard Dragon Well, this is what one may consider a “truer” Dragon Well with a much higher quality leaf. It is not the same leaf as found in the legend of the eighteen bushes, but it is reminiscent of what those would be like. We recommend starting with our standard Dragon Well before moving up to this tea for those new to Chinese greens and this tea in general. This tea serves as the standard against supermarket grade "dragon well" varietals and imitations: which exist and are quite poor quality.
