LCurator note · Dragonfly
If grassy green tea is exactly what puts you off green tea, this is the antidote: high-altitude organic Chinese leaf that tastes of toasted chestnut and grain far more than fresh grass, with the vegetal note kept right down and zero astringency even if you over-steep it. Silky, naturally sweet and genuinely forgiving to brew. It does contain caffeine. Ignore the cognitive-focus wording; the honest pitch is that this is the nutty, smooth green for people who think they dislike green tea, and it usually changes their mind.

About this tea
Dragonfly Organic Pure Green Mountain, in brief.
Dragonfly Organic Pure Green Mountain is the high-grown green tea bag from the Dragonfly organic range, leaf sourced from organic-certified mountain estates and presented as a clean single-origin everyday green tea, picked into the Teas.co.uk curator selection as the proper organic alternative to the Twinings, Yorkshire and supermarket green tea boxes.
The leaf reads brighter and more developed than the standard supermarket green-tea blend, the high-grown origin giving the cup a slightly more pronounced vegetal character and a fuller mouthfeel than a basic green-tea bag would carry. No added flavourings, no jasmine, no fruit, no spice, just the leaf the way it grew, the right way to drink a daily green tea if you want the proper structure rather than a flavoured Sencha or a dessert-style matcha bag.
A forty-bag Dragonfly household pack at an accessible price for the organic-certified tier, the proper daily green tea for anyone who wants a clean unflavoured cup with the brand reassurance of Soil Association certification on the box, a sensible upgrade over the cheap square-bag supermarket green teas, the better leaf paying a small but noticeable dividend across weeks of regular daily drinking.
Dragonfly Organic Pure Green Mountain exists as a functional upgrade for the tea drinker who wants the traditional uses of green tea but dislikes the harsh grassy astringency of supermarket blends. Formerly known as Emerald Mountain, this tea is a tribute to the ancient Chinese tradition of Shan Cha or mountain tea.
By sourcing from high altitude gardens where the tea bushes grow slowly in the mist, Dragonfly secures a leaf that is denser in nutrients and naturally sweeter. It is the perfect choice for the individual who views their tea break as a moment of mindfulness in 2026, offering a clean golden liquor that supports cognitive focus and long term vitality.

The story behind Dragonfly
Dragonfly comes from the Ginsberg family: Bruce Ginsberg introduced rooibos to British tea drinkers in 1976, and his grandfather Benjamin was the first to pack it as a tea. Specialising in single-ingredient and simple herbal blends with organic certification, they focus on quality botanicals over flashy positioning. Their Rooibos and Pure Peppermint are British retail benchmarks.

Side by side
How does it compare
vs Pukka Supreme GreenDragonfly Organic Pure Green Mountain, 40 Tea Bags 80g offers a more distinct flavour profile and competitive pricing versus the mass market alternative; the difference is most noticeable in the second half of the cup when Pukka Supreme Green starts to thin out.
vs Clipper GreenWhere Clipper Green leans into a single dominant note, Dragonfly Organic Pure Green Mountain, 40 Tea Bags 80g delivers a more balanced and aromatic experience designed for daily drinking rather than as an occasional treat.
vs Twinings Pure GreenBoth occupy a similar price band and shelf position, but Dragonfly Organic Pure Green Mountain, 40 Tea Bags 80g differentiates through its certified sourcing, ethical packaging and the Dragonfly brand heritage outlined above.
To unlock the full potential of your Dragonfly Organic Green Mountain, specific thermal techniques are required to prevent burning the delicate leaves.
Ideal brewing conditions · Hot
The Barista Hot Serve
01
MeasurePlace one tea bag in your favourite cup or pre warmed mug.
02
WaterCrucial Step: Allow boiled water to cool to about 80 degrees Celsius (a thermometer or a temperature-controlled kettle is the reliable way to tell). Boiling water will burn the leaves and release bitter tannins.
03
SteepInfuse for 1 to 3 minutes. A shorter steep highlights the nutty notes; a longer steep brings out more structural grip in 2026.
04
FinishBest enjoyed plain to appreciate the subtle mountain terroir and pure botanical profile.
Ideal brewing conditions · Iced
The Cold Brew Method
01
ConcentratePlace two tea bags in a glass jar with 500ml of cold filtered water.
02
SteepSeal and refrigerate for 6 to 12 hours for a slow extraction.
03
ResultThe cold water extracts the natural sweetness and antioxidants without releasing any bitterness, resulting in a crystal clear iced green tea for 2026.

Brewing
Brewing the perfect cup
Water temperature80°C (use a thermometer or a temperature-controlled kettle; how fast boiled water cools depends on the amount of water and the kettle). Boiling water at 100°C destroys the delicate amino acids that give green tea its smooth, sweet character.
MeasureOne bag per 200ml of water (a standard mug). For loose leaf, use one heaped teaspoon.
Steep2 to 3 minutes, any longer and the cup turns bitter. Remove the bag promptly; do not squeeze.
ServiceNo milk and no sugar; the natural sweet grassy notes need nothing else. A slice of lemon brightens the cup if you prefer.
Cold brewDrop one bag into 250ml of cold water in a glass jug and refrigerate for 4 to 8 hours. The cold method extracts the sweeter compounds preferentially and is the smoothest way to drink green tea on a hot day.
Iced versionBrew double strength (one bag in 100ml of 80°C water for 2 minutes), cool, pour over ice and dilute with cold water.
Best withSushi, sashimi, steamed rice dishes, dark chocolate, almond cake.
