Forever Spring

This lightly oxidized oolong from the Song Bo region of Taiwan is all about floral fragrance and flavor. You’ll notice lilac, orchid and pineapple with a hint of honey. 

It produces four harvests per year (one harvest per season), but each harvest tastes like “the springtime.”

Tightly rolled leaves unfurl, releasing a surprisingly potent leaf that holds up for several steepings and brings sunshine to a dreary day.

Si Ji Chun Tasting Notes: Silky, Honeysuckle, Mineral, Orchid

Steep: Particularly well suited to gong fu brewing, but for Western-style brewing, try 2 tsp of tea for 8oz water. Water temperature: 185. Steep time 3 minutes. The tea leaves are good for several steepings — when your mug is empty, reuse the tea leaves to brew some more!

Sweetener: Not recommended

Approximately 10 tsp in a 1 ounce package.
