Brewing Guide
- Measure about 6–7g for every 100ml of your gaiwan or pot.
- Bring water to about 95°C (203°F).
- Do one quick rinse to wake the leaves.
- Keep early steeps short (5–10 seconds) and lengthen by about 5 seconds.
- Empty the pot completely into a fair cup each round.
Use this as a guide, not a rule; play with time and amount until it suits you.
Storage
Store airtight in the refrigerator, away from strong-smelling food. Allow the bag to come to room temperature before opening.
About the Leaf
