I had the wonderful opportunity to actually visit the Dragonwell when I was in China. Visiting that place and drinking this tea changed my whole perspective on tea drinking. I used to not care, but now I will not drink anything that comes in a bag and is not fresh. If you are used to drinking green tea you buy at the store that comes in a bag, then you may not like this because it is much different.

This is a great green tea and is a great supplement to sencha tea, but smoother and slightly sweeter. Both are excellent morning teas for me.
