According to one legend, this tea was given its name, when a dragon who was living in the villages temple well, was asked to save the village from a terrible drought. Everyone in the village was terrified of the Dragon, but one brave Taoist courageously went to the Dragon in the well and asked it to bring forth the rains. Almost immediately, the rain came from the sky, bringing much needed moisture to the villages tea plants.
