OPTIMAL BREWING
Tea varieties are grown and produced
in different environments and require
specific water temperatures to allow their
unique flavor and aroma to develop during
brewing. To bring out the optimal quality
and taste of more delicate tea leaves, a lower
temperature will produce a better flavored
cup of tea. For example, steeping green,
white or oolong teas in boiling water may
scald the tea leaves and result in a bitter,
astringent brew.
Brewing the tea for too long may also result
in a bitter, unpleasant taste, while brewing
for too short a period may leave the tea
bland. For best results always follow the
specific directions on the tea/coffee packet.
