THE ART of STEEPING TEATrue tea lovers take great care when preparing their choice of tea. Acheiving a specific tea’s unique character in each cup is a true art. The temperature needs to be just right. The amount of tea needs to be just right. And the steeping time needs to be just right. When the temperature is matched to a particular tea, and steeping is done correctly, tea lovers will savor and appreciate all of that tea’s naturally aromatic flavors and health benefits. Refer to the chart below for our recommendations. But remember, tastes and teas vary; you can always adjust them to your personal preference. Enjoy!

The most accepted formula for most teas is to add 1 teaspoon or bag of tea per cup of water. However some herbal blends can benefit from a bit more tea. When making a full pot, an extra teaspoonful is recommended.
