Gongfu style at 100˚C/212˚F. Unnecessary to rinse. Gaiwan is slightly preferred to Zisha teapot for its fragrance.
Depending on your desired intensity, use 5-8g : 110ml ratio. Flash steep or very short steeping time for the first 3 infusions, and then extend as wanted.
Description
The distinctively piquant aromas endure through several infusions with long-lasting sweet aftertastes. The liquor is amber and clear, and the infused leaves are yellow with noticeable red spots. The aroma is high and brisk with cinnamon fragrance.
Still on my wuyi star rock tea kick! Finished off this chadong rouqui with its deep roast, rock mineral, cinnamon stick, and subtle honey. Even in spring it’s refreshing but substantial!

This is better as a cold brew! The color is a lovely golden. The aroma is fruity and sweet. The taste is also fruity and sweet, with a bit of ash on the swallow. It lingers well.

Long, dark leaves that expand a lot when wet. The liquid is amber, and there's a lot of debris. Even with the flash steeps, the aroma and flavor were overwhelmingly smokey for quit… more

Tabaco, frutas vermelhas, cacau 80%, cedro, sutil toque mineral, cereal tostado. Gosto doce com leve toque salgado. Aftertaste com tabaco e cedro. Chá gostoso, aconchegante e confortável para acompanhar o dia inteiro.

Had my friend over for a tea tasting today. It was delightful and so much fun to introduce her to some different types of tea. We started off with the Rou Gui from the June box. I’ve never had Rou Gui before either but w… more
