Tongmu is the name of a place in Xingcun Village in Wuyishan City, Fujian Province, located 50 to 60 kilometers away from Wuyishan Mountains where yan cha is produced. This Xiao Chi Gan, a kind of Zheng Shan Xiao Zhong, is produced with the traditional manufacturing process in Tongmu village, and it has recently become very popular.
It is produced from one shoot with two leaves, so it does not take much time to pick the leaves by hand, as is the case with Jin Jun Mei, which is produced from only single bud.
This tea has a fruity and flowery aroma, sweet and silky taste, and its strong taste stays even after it is infused many times. Its leaves have a rich fragrance rather than refreshing.

How to prepare
3 g 0.1 oz 0.7 US tsp
95°C 203°F
150 ml 5.1 fl oz 150 cc
30 sec.~
STEP 1) Warm a gaiwan or teapot by pouring boiling water into it, then pouring it out.
STEP 2) Put tea leaves into the pot and pour water over the leaves.
STEP 3) Steam it for the required time.
STEP 4) Pour the tea into a pitcher, then into the cups to serve.
❖ When first pouring water over the leaves, foam is created. Remove the foam using the lid of the pot to achieve clearer taste.
❖ No need to "wash" the tea leaves, the first infusion is already ready to drink.
❖ For the second infusion, steep it for about half the time of the first infusion. For every other infusion after that increase the steeping time (from the time of the first infusion).
❖ Make sure to open the lid of the teapot between infusions, to prevent the leaves from steaming too much.
Taste of tea is a matter of preference, so try infusing tea in several ways and find your
favorite way to infuse.
