Pantenger Lung Ching is one of the finest examples of its class. It is harvested in early Spring when the tea leaves are tender and contain three times more polyphenols and amino acids.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe flat green tea leaves have a toasty chestnut aroma. The taste is sweet, nutty and aromatic and it has a smooth, sweet vegetable and apricot aftertaste. It also has a cooling effect.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe delicate nutty and toasted aroma is obtained by carefully pressing the tea leafsets against the hot wok by hand until it becomes one flat unit. The process is repeated several times so as not to burn the tender tea leaves.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eOrigin and Legend:\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eLung Ching means Dragon’s Well in Chinese. The Dragon is the majestic king of rains and winds in Chinese Mythology and it dwells in rivers and lakes.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe town of origin of this tea is located in the province of Zhejiang and the tea and town are named in gratitude to the Dragon that rescued the village from drought in 250 AC. The villagers were desperately praying for rains to save their crops. A Taoist that saw the villagers suffering implored a Dragon that was an inhabitant of a spring close by to save them and instantly the Dragon created a rainstorm.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003ePantenger Lung Jing is organically cultivated at Wen Jia tea garden in Zhejiang province. The tea garden is located on a high mountain at an altitude of 3000ft to 3600ft above sea level.
