Dragon well is a variety of green tea from a specific region in mainland China (Longjing village, kinda like bourbon and champagne are regional products but not sure if the plant variety is actually different), usually lighter flavor, and a bit of smoke/nuts.
Oh! So dragon well is the literal translation. Long is dragon so Jing is probably well. Pretty epic name.
Yeah, I figured it'd be easier to search dragon well. It's one of the "premier" teas in China but there are a lot of other good ones. I just don't know them by specific name. The Pu'erh from Yunnan province is usually a nice woodsy/nutty flavor that I like but there's a ton of different brands
