Ten Lu

Ten Lu Tea is grown in Lushan, Taiwan where the hills are shrouded by fog and covered by clouds throughout the year. The environmental moisture is absorbed by the tea leaves. This Ten Lu Tea is comprised of good quality oolong from the Lushan estate. The steeped tea has a yellow hue, a moderately fresh aroma, distinct fresh flavor, and a mildly sweet aftertaste.

The water used to steep this tea should be about 185-195°F or 85-90°C. Use about 2 teaspoons (3 grams) of tea leaves for about every 5 ounces (150 milliliters) of water. A steeping time of about 3-5 minutes is recommended with more or less time depending on the desired concentration. As a rough guide, the higher the temperature of the water or the greater the amount of leaves used, the shorter the steeping time should be. The tea leaves should uncurl for full flavor. For the ultimate enjoyment, a traditional Chinese Yixing teapot is recommended for loose oolong tea. The teapot should be half filled with leaves and initially steeped for 45 seconds to 1 minute with the steeping time increased by an additional 15 seconds for each successive steeping. The leaves may be steeped multiple times.

Net tea weight is 10.6 oz (300g) and shipping weight is 1.17 lbs.
