How to Drink Puerh Tea in Four Steps
Step 1: Prepare the Tea Set
- Warm the tea cups by rinsing them with hot water. This helps to maintain the temperature of the tea during brewing and enhances the aroma of the tea leaves.
- Preheat the teapot or gaiwan by rinsing it with hot water. This ensures that the teapot or gaiwan is at the right temperature for brewing, which helps to extract the flavors from the tea leaves.
Step 2: Put in Proper Puerh Tea Leaves
- Depending on personal preference, measure the appropriate amount of Pu-erh tea leaves. Typically, 3-5 grams of tea leaves are used for brewing.
- Adjust the amount of tea leaves according to your taste preferences. More leaves will result in a stronger brew, while fewer leaves will yield a lighter infusion.
Step 3: Brew the Tea
- Heat water to around 85°C (185°F), which is suitable for brewing Pu-erh tea. Avoid boiling water as it may scald the delicate tea leaves.
- Slowly pour the hot water along the walls of the teapot or gaiwan to evenly wet the tea leaves and extract the flavors.
- Allow the tea leaves to steep for a few minutes, typically 3-5 minutes, depending on the desired strength of the tea. Pu-erh tea can be brewed multiple times, with each infusion offering a different flavor profile.
Step 4: Brew the Tea
- After the desired steeping time, pour the brewed tea into the tea cups.
- Let the tea sit for about 5 seconds before serving to allow any sediment to settle at the bottom of the teapot or gaiwan.
- Pour out all the tea from the teapot or gaiwan to prevent over-steeping, which can result in a bitter or astringent taste.
