80

There is a gentleness to this tea that makes it very easy to drink. It is vegetal without venturing too far into grassy and has a subtle nuttiness. The first infusion has an exquisite floral topnote while subsequent brews mellow into this nuttiness.

My first infusion was at the recommended 80C for 3 minutes but I find a little cooler (70C) and shorter (2 mins 30 secs) makes the brew sweeter. This tea is good for about 3 infusions, 4 if you don’t mind it a little weak.

Flavors: Nutty, Sweet, Warm Grass, Vegetal

Preparation
175 °F / 79 °C 3 min, 0 sec 4 tsp 24 OZ / 700 ML
