Gui Fei Cha 2016

Taiwanese oolong tea

Gui Fei tea got its name after one of the four most celebrated beauties in Chinese history. Yang Gui Fei was the adored consort of Emperor Xuanzong during the Tang dynasty. And the name already tells everything. Gui Fei tea is just as unforgettable as Yang Gui Fei is.

The tea is incredibly pampering, the aroma of refined, soft but very sweet honey is everywhere, in the scent, in the flavor, in the texture, and in the aftertaste. The fragrance in the aroma cup is so indulging and lasting that it's already a full experience. And then comes the taste. Sugarcane, honey, and a gentle, airy fruitiness blend together and leave a creamy, mellow mouthfeel, almost as if we drank a smooth, sweet milk tea, just better.

The tea is great prepared both hot and cold, but it has a deliciously warming effect prepared hot.

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 your teapot. Pour boiling water into a gaiwan or teapot, let it sit for a little while, then discard all the water.
STEP 2) Rinse. Put the tea leaves in your vessel, pour hot water over them and then discard the water quickly. This step is for "waking the leaves" a little bit.
STEP 3) Brew. Pour boiling water on your rinsed tea leaves and brew for 30 seconds.
STEP 4) Serve. Pour the tea into a pitcher, and then into cups.
STEP 5) Brew again.

❖ After the first few infusions, you can increase the steeping time (to about 35-40 seconds).
❖ Make sure to open the lid of the teapot between infusions, to prevent the leaves from cooking.
❖ This is how we recommend brewing this tea, but we all have our preferences, so try experimenting to find the way you like it the most.
