Gong Fu Brewing Instructions for Black Cocoa Artisan Tea Blend
For a deeper, more refined exploration of this rich and chocolatey black tea blend, Gong Fu brewing is an ideal method. It unlocks the unique, layered flavors of the Lumberjack Breakfast black tea with each successive infusion.
Ratio: We recommend starting with 1 gram of tea per 20 ml of water. (For a 100ml gaiwan, use approximately 5 grams of tea.) For an extra bold "wake-up cup," you can increase the ratio to 1:15.
Temperature: Use hot water between 203°F (95°C) to 208°F (98°C). This blend is crafted to stand up to a heavy brew.
Infusion Cycle:
First Steep (Flash Steep): Pour hot water over the leaves and pour immediately to "rinse" and awaken them. This also allows the spices to bloom. Discard this liquid.
Second Steep: Infuse the leaves for just 10-15 seconds. Pour and enjoy the first full expression of the tea's bold, chocolatey character.
Third Steep & Beyond: Add approximately 10 seconds to each subsequent infusion. The Lumberjack Breakfast blend is designed to hold its robust flavor across many infusions.
