MAO FENG GREEN TEA

We can make a book with all the information that we have about green tea. Green tea in China is like black Tea in western civilization...Today I try to introduce You, in a new concept of knowledge about Tea. 

I have a lot of qualities and denominations of Green Tea, most of them come from different Provinces of Mainland China.

Today we are sipping in a quiet and calm ceremony the Green Tea called Mao Feng tea (毛峰 ) what is means "furry peak", which is made of only slightly twisted leaf buds and is sometimes noted for a smoother and different flavor. Many people prefer to brew a smaller quantity of this tea for a longer time than usual, up to 7 minutes, to bring out more interesting tones in the tea. . It belongs from Fujian Province is known for mountain-grown organic green tea as well as white tea and oolong tea. The coastal mountains provide a perfect growing environment for tea growing. Green tea is picked in spring and summer seasons.

HOW TO PREPARE THE TEA:

In general, 2 grams of tea per 100 ml (3.83 fl.oz) or about full teaspoon of green tea per 150 ml (5 fl.oz) cup, should be used. [the cup you might see in the picture is 150 ml (5 fl.oz)]. Green tea steeping time and temperature varies with different tea. The hottest steeping temperatures are 81ºC to 87ºC (180ºF to 190ºF) water and the longest steeping times two to three minutes. The coolest brewing temperatures are 61ºC to 69ºC (140ºF to 160ºF) and the shortest times about 30 seconds. In general, lower'quality green teas are steeped hotter and longer. It is thought that excessively hot water results in tannin chemical release, which is specially problematic in green teas, as they have higher contents of these. High-quality green teas can be and usually are steeped multiple times; two or three steepings is typical. The steeping technique also plays a very important role in avoiding the tea developing an overcooked taste. I recommend with this Mao Feng tea make an infusion no longer than 1 minute, rinse first time the leaves waving the teapot for 20 seconds and then pour out the water into the sink and serve water again at 90ºC (194ºF) steeping no more than 1 minute in first serving, longer steeping times in following servings.
