More Information

Is it West Lake Longjing?

No.West Lake Longjing tea is different from Longjing tea.

To put it simply, the scope of Longjing tea is wider. The flat green tea produced in Zhejiang Province can be called Longjing tea, such as Qiantang Longjing and Yuezhou Longjing. The Dafo Longjing大佛龙井 in Xinchang County and Yuexiang Longjing越乡龙井 in Shengzhou that we are familiar with belong to the "Yuezhou Longjing".

West Lake Production Area:

The production area is located in the West Lake Scenic Area and West Lake District of Hangzhou City. The quality characteristics of West Lake Longjing tea are: green in color, flat, smooth, fragrant, and mellow in taste. The output accounts for 7% to 10% of the total Longjing tea;

Qiantang Production Area:

The production area is located on both sides of the Qiantang River, including Xiaoshan District and Yuhang District of Hangzhou City, as well as counties and cities such as Lin'an, Fuyang, Tonglu, Jiande, and Chun'an. The quality characteristics of Qiantang Longjing tea are: green color, flat, smooth, with chestnut fragrance, mellow and refreshing, and the output accounts for about 28%~30% of the total Longjing tea;

Yuezhou Production Area:

Yuezhou Longjing: The production area is located in the Shaoxing area of Ancient Yuezhou, and a few surrounding cities and counties, including Xinchang, Shengzhou, Shaoxing, Zhuji, Pan'an, Dongyang, Shangyu, Tiantai and other counties and cities.

Since the 1970s, many areas in Zhejiang have begun to fry Longjing tea, which is usually called Zhejiang Longjing. On this basis, with the approval of the State Administration of Quality Supervision, Inspection and Quarantine No. 28 in 2001, the protection of the origin of Longjing tea has been implemented. Longjing tea originally produced in Xihu District of Hangzhou is called West Lake Longjing; Longjing tea produced in other production areas in Zhejiang is called Qiantang Longjing and Yuezhou Longjing, and the "Geographical Indication of Longjing Tea" can be used.
