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 note of the fragrant and sweet melon taking the main role in both the fragrance and the flavor. Sugarcane, honey, and a gentle, airy fruitiness blend together and leave a creamy - silky mouthfeel. The aftertaste is a sweet mixture of peach, fruit compote, and verdant notes.
It is great prepared both hot and cold, but it has a deliciously warming effect prepared hot.
The first couple of brews are better prepared with 95°C water. For the later brews, we can lower the temperature a little and extend the steeping 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.
