Brewing recommendations
Closed tea pot/boiling: 1pc | 1L | 100 °C | 5m
This is a great choice of tea for a closed tea pot. Take 1 piece with 1 liter of water and keep it in for 5 minutes or longer time if you prefer a stronger tea. This tea can be reused for 2-3 times by refilling more boiling water into your tea pot. It is also recommended to slow-cook it on a stove with low temperature or a candle.
Steeping: 1pc | 100ml | 100 °C | 15s
We recommend a steeping temperature of 100 °C (212 °F) to fully stimulate the strong aroma of this tangerine white tea. Take 1 piece with 100ml water to steep for 15 seconds. Or increase to 30 seconds if you prefer a stronger tea. The tea can be re-steeped several times when using a tea egg, filter bag, or Chinese Gaiwan/Yixing teapot.
