Its picking standard is one bud and two leaves/three leaves. The leaves are naturally stretched, thick in the middle and slender at both ends. The taste is sweet and mellow.

Brewing suggestions:
Tea to water ratio 1:30
Water temperature: 100℃212℉)
Recommended utensils: Gaiwan/Purple clay teapot

First to fourth brewing: use 100°C water (212℉), pour water along the wall of the Gaiwan at fixed points, first infusion should be longer over 30s because it’s compressed tea ,which needs more time to let tea leaves stretch in water. The late infusion can be brewed 10-15 seconds.

After the fourth brewing, use 100°C water (212℉), pour water along the wall of the Gaiwan at fixed points, wait more than 15 seconds, and then pour out the tea soup.

After several brewings, you can remove the tea from the teapot and boil it again in a kettle. Please remember to pour hot water, not cold water, into the kettle to boil the used tea. You will see that the tea is fragrant and even sweeter than when brewed in a teapot.
