Lü Bao Shi
Long Jing Xi Hu Superior
The upper class of the well-known & popular "Dragon Wells of the West Lake" (which has a total of 13 different quality classes). Authentic Lung Ching is supposed to be processed only by hand, which requires a lot of skill and time, and thus increases the price of tea.
However, the quality of such tea corresponds to the price. Dragon wells of higher varieties give a crystal clear drink of a tender emerald color with an aroma as dense as orchids and a fresh saturated taste with fruit tones.

Bi Luo Chun
"Emerald Spring Spirals ". A very fine tea that should be collected in early spring, as soon as the first tender leaves appear, in which the content of amino acids and tea phenols is the greatest. The tea must be processed the same day it was harvested. The whole process (plucking, drying and rolling) must be completed by night.
Bi Luo Chun has seven classes of varying quality - the lower the class, the bigger the leaves collected and vice versa. For high grades, the drying temperature used is lower and the handling of the sheet more careful. The aroma of dry tea is indescribable, almost honey-like, the leaves are twisted into miniature, richly fluffy spirals, the infusion has a soft emerald color with a heavier, full, yet very fresh taste.
