This Taiwanese take on world famous Dragonwell shares same high quality as its Chinese siblings. It contains many beautiful furry tea buds. The tea starts with a decent flowery aroma, and gradually  turns into fresh fruit flavour, leaves a fresh and sweet aftertaste. 

Dragonwell Green Tea belongs to the category of 「Fried Green Tea」 (chao-qing-lu-cha 炒青綠茶), which means it undergoes the process of pan or cylinder frying as a process of stopping oxidization and partial dehydrating.

Brewing: Green tea is better with lower temperature infusion. For roasted green tea, water temperature around 80℃ - 85℃ (176F-185F) can reduce the dryness and bitterness of tea. For steamed green tea, try lower temperature around 70℃ (158F) for starting. 
Dragonwell Green Tea is flat processed, use about 1.5 tsp with 120c.c. (4oz) 80℃-85℃ (176F-185F) water (or try lower), steam about 60 seconds for the first brew to unroll the leaves, add 10-20 seconds for the following infusions. Provides at least 3 infusions. The tea leaves need to be fully expanded in the container, remember not to put too much loose tea to avoid over packed and bitterness. Once you get familiar with the tea, you may explore your own brewing method.

Teaware: Gaiwan and glassware are best for observasion. Other choices are clay teaware, porcelain teaware are best for Green Tea. Gongfu teaware or Yixing pots are also good choices.
