Brewing Guide
- Warm a gaiwan or small teapot and add about 6–7g of leaf per 100ml.
- Use water at 100°C (212°F).
- Give the leaves one fast rinse.
- Start with 5–10 seconds, then add roughly 5 seconds per round.
- Decant fully into a fair cup each time.
Treat these as a starting point and adjust to your taste.
Storage
Store sealed in a cool, dry, dark spot away from strong smells. The roast keeps it stable, so the fridge is not needed.
About the Leaf
You may see some of these; they vary from bag to bag:
- Some stems and broken pieces: normal for hand-sorted loose oolong, and they brew just as well.
- Darker, glossier leaf: this is the roast, not spoilage.
Customer Reviews
Lovely tea, fairly roasted taste but if I compare it to other heavy roasted teas I had from different websites the rosted taste is not very dominant, you can still taste a hint of flowery-sweet taste. Nevertheless it's a great tea and can be brewed a lot of times before losing its taste.
This tea took a bit of getting used to as it is a strong roasted tea, but is great for an all day drinker from a gaiwan. I can easily get 2 litres of tea from 7-10 grams. I often drink this tea in the evening and have never had a sleepless night because of it.
Good tea. The taste is great. I love this type of tea.
