Chinese green tea FAQ
How do I brew Chinese green tea?
Use 1 teaspoon per 8 oz cup, or a little more for fluffy leaves like Mao Feng. Heat water to 175 to 185°F and steep 2 to 3 minutes. A glass cup lets you watch the leaves open.
What is gunpowder green tea?
Gunpowder tea is green tea rolled into small, tight pellets that open up as they steep. It has a bold, slightly smoky taste. It is also the classic base for Moroccan-style mint tea.
Is Anji White a white tea?
No. Anji White is a green tea. Its name comes from the pale, almost white young leaves of the tea plant it is made from. It is processed like green tea and tastes fresh, sweet and smooth.
What does Dragon Well taste like?
Long Jing, or Dragon Well, is pressed flat in a hot pan. That gives it a toasty, nutty flavor, often compared to chestnut, with a smooth, sweet finish and very little bitterness.
