To fully appreciate the flavor and aroma of Long Leaf Green Tea, it is essential to follow the proper brewing techniques:
Water Temperature: The ideal water temperature for brewing Long Leaf Green Tea is 70-80°C (158-176°F). Boiling water can scorch the delicate leaves, resulting in a bitter taste.
Steeping Time: Allow the tea to steep for 2-3 minutes. Over-steeping can also lead to bitterness, while under-steeping may not fully extract the flavors.
Tea-to-Water Ratio: Use about 2 grams (approximately one teaspoon) of tea leaves per 200 ml (about one cup) of water.
Multiple Infusions: Long Leaf Green Tea from CONTES DE FLORE is suitable for multiple infusions. After the first brew, you can re-infuse the same leaves 2-3 times by simply increasing the steeping time slightly with each subsequent brew.
