Taiwanese oolong tea
An amazing oolong blend from four cultivars - Jin Xuan, Cui Yu, Si Ji Chun, and Yin Xiang - mixed with osmanthus flowers, the lovely and aromatic flower of autumn.
This tea is a delight. Sweet, fruity, and floral all at once. The oolongs' usual cookie-creamy scent mixes with the osmanthuses' fruity-floral fragrance, and together they are just heavenly. Gingerbread and raspberry syrup are the two things that come to mind sniffing the steaming tea leaves.
The tea is mellow, sweet, and verdant. The aromatic muscat main notes are replaced with a lasting, sweet berry aftertaste. The sugary scent of the tea stays in the cups and the throat for a long time.

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.
