Comment 2007
Good crop this year. Even better, price of Fur Peak doesn't go up by 30+% like
other well-known teas (because of China's booming economy).
Suggested brewing parameters - TEA:WATER (by weight) 1:65. Better use a glasses
to watch the leaves dance though a gaiwan is just fine. Tea in glasses first
then water. Use 90C water for the first infusion to open up leaves, then
back to 80C for coming up infusions. Brew time = 3 mins (WOW, but that is what
Kam found out after test drinking more than too much of this tea). Leaves can last 3 infusions. Other rules for
brewing green tea applies.

High quality flavor with a low key sweetness. Smooth on the tongue. Lovely
yellowish green tea color.

When Kam finds good tea on a tea trip, or
when he comes across special/good batches of tea, he puts them on "Chinese Tea
Select". Tea offered as "Select" is tea from a specific batch. It will be gone for
good once it's sold out.
