love this tea !! I had never used loose leaf tea before and honestly had no idea what I was even ordering. Just a stab in the dark. Lucky, it is good. I am well on my way to ordering my second bag. I drink it every morning.
Description
The highest grade of green teas are made from tender tea shoots picked early spring. These young tea shoots may consist of a single terminal bud, a bud with an adjacent leaf or a bud with two adjacent slightly unfurled leaves. It is generally required that the leaves are equal in length or shorter than the buds.
Green tea steeping time and temperature varies with different tea. The steeping temperatures are 81 to 87 °C (178 to 189 °F) water and the steeping times 1-2.5 minutes. In general, lower-quality green teas are steeped hotter and longer, while higher-quality teas are steeped cooler and shorter. Steeping green tea too hot or too long will result in a bitter, astringent brew, regardless of the initial quality. High-quality green teas can be and usually are steeped multiple times; two or three steepings is typical.
