- Specials An outstanding Long Jing quality, harvested in the Ming-Qian period - in the 10 days before the Chinese Tomb-Sweeping Day, Qingming, at the beginning of April. At this time, the first spring shoots of the tea plants are still tender and full of flavour before the first spring rain sets in. This is the most precious harvest time and the quantities available are very limited. This lot was obtained from the Long Jing #43 cultivar, known for its wonderful fragrance and smooth, nutty flavour in the cup. A tea experience in a class of its own!
