Lung Ching Tea, also known and Dragon Well, is produced by hand through a 10 part process. Dragon Well is distinguished by its beautiful shape, emerald color, scented smell and tending sweet floral character. Legend has it that in 250 AD a Taoist monk affirmed that there must be a dragon lurking in a certain spring not far from Hangchow. The monk implored the well dragon to come to the rescue of the poor farmers suffering a crippling drought. Instantly the clouds came rushing in from every side and poured forth a timely rain. One account of this, an old temple adjoining the spring is know as Dragon’s Well Monastery, and the tea derives its name from the same legend.
