This core Westlake region produces some of the most valued Long Jing tea (not the lesser grades from outlying Hangzhou, or even further out in Zhejiang province). \u003cspan class=\"s1\"\u003eThis grade (\"Top Superior\") is the highest available for this tea, and provides a very refined tasting experience.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThis year, we sourced a very early Spring picking that proved to be remarkable, with a greater emphasis on floral notes and a smoother, lighter body. Light toffee aroma arises from the warmed leaf, while the delicate soup presents magnolia florals and fresh plums. Later steeps reveal notes of milk chocolate laced with yellow raisins.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eBrew gently to start, using 90C water and flash (2s) brews for the first several infusions, moving to boiling water and 5s steeps in later brews.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThis is a tea that ages gracefully in the medium term; we find it matures well in 1-3 years, becoming smoother, less floral but with more chocolatey raisin character with age. \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eTECHNICALS\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ctable style=\"width: 360px; height: 121.323px;\" height=\"149\"\u003e\n\u003ctbody\u003e\n\u003ctr style=\"height: 51px;\"\u003e\n\u003ctd style=\"width: 213.073px; height: 51px;\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eGrowing Region\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd style=\"width: 132.927px; height: 51px;\"\u003eHangzhou, Xi Hu (Westlake) region\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr style=\"height: 25.9688px;\"\u003e\n\u003ctd style=\"width: 213.073px; height: 25.9688px;\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eMicro Region \/ Tea Garden\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd style=\"width: 132.927px; height: 25.9688px;\"\u003eLong Wu Village\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd style=\"width: 213.073px;\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eGrade\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd style=\"width: 132.927px;\"\u003eTop Superior (极品特级)\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr style=\"height: 43.4167px;\"\u003e\n\u003ctd style=\"width: 213.073px; height: 43.4167px;\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eTea Type\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd style=\"width: 132.927px; height: 43.4167px;\"\u003eBlack Tea (Hong Cha)\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr style=\"height: 0.9375px;\"\u003e\n\u003ctd style=\"width: 213.073px; height: 0.9375px;\"\u003e\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd style=\"width: 132.927px; height: 0.9375px;\"\u003e\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003c\/tbody\u003e\n\u003c\/table\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e \u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"FatBat Puerh","offers":[{"title":"100g (in a gift tin)","offer_id":45020818243833,"sku":"","price":39.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false},{"title":"100g (pouch)","offer_id":45020827255033,"sku":"","price":35.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"50g (pouch)","offer_id":45020827582713,"sku":"","price":20.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"20g (pouch)","offer_id":45621542715641,"sku":"","price":10.5,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0600\/7311\/5897\/files\/E77D837F-DDAC-4D08-8D9F-0213887D8FC2.jpg?v=1770141160","url":"https:\/\/fatbatpuerh.com\/products\/2024-dragon-well-black-tea","provider":"FatBat Puerh","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
