Special Brewing Tips for Hou Kui:

1. Place approximately 5 grams of tea leaves into a cup (similar to the one displayed in the photo). Optionally, pre-warm the cup with hot water.
2. Gently pour hot water along the inner wall of the cup until about 2 cm high.
3. Once the tea leaves' roots have absorbed some water, incrementally add more hot water.
4. Continue pouring until the leaves are fully submerged, then add water a final time until the cup is 80% filled.
5. Savor your meticulously brewed Tai Ping Hou Kui tea.

A Unique Experience

The large leaves are such a joy to watch unfold as they steep, and the taste is comfortable and vegetal in all the best ways. It's definitely worth trying at least once, and I personally intend to purchase more once I run out.

This one is much lighter than the lower grades with a much larger spectrum of flavor. Not a tea for on the go, but if you like to meditate on tea it's worth every penny.
