More About Blush, Jasper & Gold’s Elevated Artisan Sun Tea Infusion
This limited-edition artisan black tea is an innovative dry blend, meticulously layering premium, high-oxidization tea leaves with delicate botanicals to achieve an unprecedented level of smoothness.
Golden Monkey & Gold Needle Black Teas (China): The luxurious foundation of this blend. These highly prized, oxidized leaves deliver a velvety texture and a rich, honeyed-malt sweetness. Naturally high in L-theanine and antioxidants, they provide a sustained, focused energy lift without the sharp astringency of standard black teas.
Premium Fujian Breakfast Tea: Sourced for its deep, complex structure, this tea provides the robust backbone necessary for the perfect iced or sun tea, ensuring the flavor holds up beautifully without ever turning bitter when chilled.
The Triple-Rose Layer (Pink & Dark Pink Rose Buds, Rose Petals): A masterfully calibrated floral infusion. Rather than dominating the palate with perfume, this precise ratio of rose neutralizes the tea’s natural tannins, resulting in a smooth, mellow sweetness traditionally used to promote heart-opening calm and sensory relaxation.
Crisp Orange Peel: The bright citrus anchor. It expertly cuts through the malt and rose, providing a refreshing, zesty finish that makes this blend exceptionally revitalizing on a warm afternoon.

Gong Fu Brewing Instructions for London Sunrise Artisan Black Tea
For a deeper, more refined exploration of this complex and aromatic black tea blend, Gong Fu brewing is an ideal method. It unlocks the unique, layered flavors of the Fujian Breakfast and Golden Needle teas 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.)
Temperature: Use hot water between 203°F (95°C) to 212°F (100°C). This blend is crafted to stand up to a heavy brew and reveal new dimensions of flavor.
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.

Third Steep & Beyond: Add approximately 10 seconds to each subsequent infusion. This Artisan Tea Blend is designed to hold its robust flavor across many infusions, revealing new layers of complexity with every cup.
