Steeping Instructions
1. Fill kettle with fresh water, then heat.
2. Warm your teapot with a little hot water, discard, place your tea leaves in teapot, allowing heat of the pot to release bouquet of the tea leaves.
3. Heat water to rolling boil (212°). Or Heat water until just below boiling (190° - 205°). Steep 1 teaspoon (3 g/8 oz. cup) up to 5 minutes; refresh as desired.
*Vary time according to taste, & remember that steeping tea leaves beyond 5 mins does not contribute to flavor, only bitterness.
