Brewing Instructions: Preheat your teaware before brewing, whether it's a gaiwan or Yixing teapot. Use boiling water. Porcelain enhances aroma, while clay makes the taste more rounded and pronounced. The Gongfu brewing method allows you to extract multiple flavors from one brewing session. Steeping saves time and gives one flavor, but maximally pronounced. Boiling on an open flame reveals the tea's potential most fully, the tea will come out dense, saturated, and powerful.
