Water around 90–100 °C (195–212 °F). In a mug, steep 3–5 min. For gongfu, use 5 g per 100 ml, 15–30 s steeps. You'll get to see how the flavor changes across multiple rounds. Full boil is fine for most blacks. Don't overthink it.

Starts at $9.60 from white2tea, or about $0.32/g. A 25g package gets you around 4 gongfu sessions at ~6 g each, which works out to about $1.92 per session. Explore more black teas on Teadar.
