Experimental Organic Red (Black) Tea

This Experimental Organic Red (Black) Tea is an example of a light, non-tannic red tea from Nepal. In the process of producing this tea, we combined the shaking method of the leaves, derived from oolong, with a short semi-anaerobic treatment of 24 hours. Experimental Red was one of the first experimental teas made, where we tried everything at once. This experiment was a resounding success.

Infusion

We highly recommend infusing this tea using the traditional Chinese method (Gong Fu Cha) with a gaiwan or a small teapot with a capacity of about 150 ml. Following this preparation, with 5 grams of leaves it is possible to make several infusions to fully enjoy all the flavors of the tea.

After quickly rinsing the leaves with water at a temperature of 95 ° C, proceed with a first infusion of 5 seconds. Keeping the water at the same temperature, it is possible to continue using the same leaves by adding more water to each infusion and increasing the infusion time by 10 seconds (15 – 25 – 35 …).

This tea can be infused up to 5 times.

The suggested infusion times can be slightly adapted according to personal preferences to obtain a more or less intense flavor.

It is recommended to store this tea in a cool, dry place, away from direct sunlight, to maintain its freshness and quality.
