All tea comes from the same plant (camellia sinensis) and like most plants, its leaves are green. Green tea preserves that green color and freshness. China and Japan produce the highest quality green teas, though many other countries are now producing it as well. Green tea usually produces a light body with mild astringency and a vegetal/grassy character.
Zhejiang is one of China’s most renowned tea-growing provinces and the home of many classic green teas. Explore Zhejiang green teas with fresh, vegetal, nutty, and subtly toasty character, including the region’s famous Dragonwell (Long Jing).
