These yellow flakes from Jingmai's ancient tea gardens offer a delightful sweetness with very low bitterness, making them incredibly approachable. They present a unique fragrance distinct from standar. It leans sweet, woody and mellow.
How should I brew Spring 2017 Jingmai Yellow Flakes?
Water around 95–100 °C (203–212 °F). In a mug, steep 3–5 min. For gongfu, use 5–7 g per 100 ml, 10–20 s steeps (10–20+ rounds). You'll get to see how the flavor changes across multiple rounds. Rinse the leaves once with boiling water before your first real steep. It cleans off storage dust and gets the flavor going.
