Pressed in 2012 and stored in Kunming, where the dry climate allows tea to age slowly and cleanly, without the mustiness that poor storage can bring.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003e✦ How to Brew\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eBring water to a full boil (100°C). Break off 5–7g and give the leaves 1–2 quick rinses before your first steep — this opens them up and clears any surface dust. Steep for 10–20 seconds to start, then gradually increase. A gaiwan or clay teapot works beautifully. This tea is forgiving and consistent — hard to over-brew.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003e✦ Shipping\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eWe ship worldwide from China.
