Black Tea from Jiangshu province, China
TASTE NOTES
The tea has a toasty aroma with hints of prune jam and apricot, and the first brew delivers these exact notes from your nose to your palate. It is a delicious mix of prune and apricot, with a sweet honey flavor that lingers, much like you would find in the finest black teas. In the second brew, the sweetness softens, quince notes add a touch of depth while letting the mildly tart black tea aroma shine through. Perfect for those who appreciate a well-balanced, flavorful premium Chinese black teas!

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) Fill your pot with tea leaves in a 3g/150ml ratio, pour boiling water on them, and brew for 40 seconds. (No need for rinsing the leaves before the first brew.)
STEP 3) Serve. Pour the tea into a pitcher, and then into cups.
STEP 4) Brew again.
❖ 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 (to about 50-60 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.
