Taiwanese oolong tea
This tea, cultivated in Long Feng Valley, 1800 meters above sea level, is all about robust toasty and full-bodied notes. It is bold, charismatic, and incredibly versatile. While the smoky flavors take center stage, there is a savory-sour undertone that reminds of pickles and a steady, intense sweetness, not mellow like that of creams but sharp and spicy like pure caramel, like brittle. The tea leaves exude a sweet fragrance reminiscent of dried fruits, fused with a sweet, toasty nut essence. The sweet, vanilla-like scent is incredibly lasting in the cup.

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 45 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.
