Steeping Instructions

Green and White teas should be steeped with water that is between 160 and 170 degrees. To get this temperature, pull water from heat as soon as it reaches a boil, then allow to cool for 2-3 minutes. Boiling water will bruise more delicate green and white leaves.

This tea should steep for 4-6 minutes.

For the best taste use fresh or filtered water. The best water makes the best tea.
