How this green tea is made

  • tea processing: tea leaves picking

    Picking

    Tea leaves are hand-picked in the morning.

  • tea processing: withering and drying tea on bamboo trays

    Withering

    Leaves are briefly rested to wither to eliminate some moisture.

  • Fixation (pan-frying) & Shaping

    Leaves are cooked on a wok to halt oxidation and shape them.

  • tea processing: withering and sun drying tea leaves

    Drying

    Tea leaves are dried to reduce the humidity to a minimum.

I'm more of a nutty Long Jing lover but this fresher one is really nice. 4.5/5 TEASENZ: Hello Timo, that's correct! We do also offer a more affordable longjing tea. That one is actually more nutty.

Ik heb regelmatig wel Longjing varianten gedronken, maar daarvan was de smaak vaak al na 1x opschenken verdwenen. Deze kan meerder keren opgeschonken worden. Heerlijke, ietwat notige smaak. TEASENZ: Hoi Sandra, wat leuk om te lezen hoe je deze longjing thee hebt ervaren. Mocht je de notige smaak lekker vinden, dan raad ik je aan om ook de goedkopere variant te proberen. Die is nog iets notiger.

Our design work is inspired by the artwork “Along the River During the Qingming Festival” by the Zhang Zeduan in the Song Dynasty. Instead of displaying the daily lives of people in the capital of China (as the original artwork), we display the tea making process of farmers through the same bird’s eye perspective.

When examining our packaging design in detail, tea enthusiasts will observe the tea making process, featuring tea farmers picking, drying, rolling, and frying tea leaves. The tea is then tasted in a pavilion and transported by horses along the ‘ancient tea road’.

Together, the traditional Chinese landscape and tea making theme, symbolise heritage, tradition, and respect for hard work of tea farmers.
