Brewing Guide
Brewing Guide
Mug:
5-8g | 100°C (250ml) | 1-2 minutes | rinse once before brewing
Kung Fu Tea:
Heat the water to 100°C. The first infusion is designed to awaken the tea leaves, allowing them to slightly unfurl and release the oolong's distinctive aroma. It is not meant for drinking, so pour out the water after 2-3 seconds. For the subsequent infusions, a brewing time of 3-5 seconds is recommended to maintain the tea’s delicate balance of flavors. As you progress to the middle and later brews, you might extend the steeping time based on the tea soup's taste, but beware of over-brewing, as it could introduce unwanted bitterness.
An exceptional tea! The robust leaves unfurl to release an intoxicating aroma that's both floral and spicy. It's perfect for a slow, mindful morning.
I was skeptical about the spicy aspect, but it's wonderfully balanced with honey sweetness. The aroma is invigorating and the health benefits are a great plus!
The dark, glossy leaves of Heavenly Fragrance are not just beautiful to look at, they steep into a golden liquor that is both spicy and sweet, offering a truly heavenly taste.
I use this tea for my Kung Fu brewing sessions and it's fantastic. The flavors evolve beautifully across multiple infusions, with the ginger and honey notes becoming more pronounced.
Heavenly Fragrance truly lives up to its name. The aroma fills the room with a soothing, ginger-floral scent. It's my new favorite for relaxing evenings.
