About This Tea
What does Emei Maofeng taste like?
This Emei Maofeng offers a delightful profile of buttery greens, reminiscent of sauteed spinach, complemented by a bright hint of orange zest. The brew is full-bodied and savory, with a delicate unfur. It leans buttery, vegetal and zesty.
How should I brew Emei Maofeng?
Water around 70–80 °C (158–176 °F). In a mug, steep 2–3 min. For gongfu, use 3–5 g per 100 ml, 15–30 s steeps. You'll get to see how the flavor changes across multiple rounds. The biggest mistake with green tea is using boiling water. Keep it well below that and you won't get bitterness.
