Your tea will arrive in a plastic-lined paper bag with a fold-down top, which is suitable for temporary storage. For longer-term storage, it is best to use a glass jar with a tight-fitting lid, preferably metal, such as a canning jar. Place in a cool, dry area, out of direct sunlight, such as a closed cupboard. Stored this way, your tea will last indefinitely.
Black Tea
1. Start with 3/4 of a level teaspoon of loose tea per 6 oz. of water. (You may adjust this to your taste, but start with this.)
2. Bring water to a rolling boil for approximately 10 seconds.
3. Pour boiling water over the tea leaves.
4. Infuse (steep) black tea for a minimum of 5 full minutes, unless instructed otherwise based on the tea you have purchased. TIME IT, TIME IT, TIME IT! Remove the leaf from the tea liquor and enjoy!
Green Tea or Semi-Black Tea
1. Start with 3/4 of a level teaspoon of loose tea per 6 oz. of water. (You may adjust this to your taste, but start with this.)
2. Bring water to a rolling boil for approximately 10 seconds. Remove kettle from heat. Allow water to drop to about 185 degrees, or if you have received temperature instructions, go by that, (check with a thermometer if possible, otherwise wait about 5 minutes for 185 degrees) before pouring over tea leaves.
3. Infuse (steep) green tea for two minutes, semi-black tea for seven minutes, unless instructed otherwise based on the tea you have purchased. TIME IT, TIME IT, TIME IT! Remove the leaf from the tea liquor and enjoy!
Green tea and semi-black tea leaf may be infused several times, depending on the tea you have purchased. Any tea purchased from The Tea Shop will arrive with instructions on the temperature to use, the time of infusion and the number of times to re-use the leaf. Green tea and semi-black tea, though they may be slightly more expensive than black tea by weight measurement, are ultimately less costly due to the number of times the leaf may be infused
