Brewing Guidance

Vessel: Gaiwan or small Yixing teapot (recommended)
Water Temperature: 90–95Β°C (194–203Β°F)
Leaf Amount: 5g per 100ml

Steeping Guide:
β€’ Infusions 1–3: Pour and drain immediately β€” do not let the leaves steep. This flash-brewing technique unlocks the delicate orchid aroma without over-extracting.
β€’ Infusions 4 and beyond: Gradually increase steeping time by 5–10 seconds with each steep.
⚠️ Important: Never cover and steep (no stewing). This tea is too fine for prolonged infusion β€” over-steeping will mask its signature floral and honey notes.

Number of Infusions: 8–12 infusions

Tips:
β€’ Use filtered or spring water for the best flavor expression
β€’ Rinse the leaves briefly before the first steep to awaken the aroma
β€’ Savor each infusion slowly β€” the orchid and honey notes evolve beautifully across multiple steeps
