Oolong

Water around 85–95 °C (185–205 °F). In a mug, steep 3–4 min. For gongfu, use 5–7 g per 100 ml, 10–30 s steeps (8–15 rounds). You'll get to see how the flavor changes across multiple rounds. Heavier roasts can take boiling water no problem.

Grown in Taiwan from the Si Ji Chun cultivar.

Starts at $18.78 from Grasswood Tea, or about $0.71/g. A 25g package gets you around 4 gongfu sessions at ~6 g each, which works out to about $4.26 per session. Explore more oolong teas on Teadar.
