70446W Amber Beauty

Amber Beauty #70446W

This is an "Ooloong Combinar" in Formosa Amber Oolong.
We had this blend on Autumn 2011.  A lengthy fired Chinsing Oolong from Lugu, Nantou and the baked Jin Suang from ShanLinSi to have a batch of this Amber Beauty to be cured for the tea to get to another level and will be served for Gongfu tea ceremonies.   We've done another baking during the month of October and Novermber 2019.





We have used 5 oz glass teapot to run a harmonized infusion -
3g / 210F / 4'30"   and enjoy the agony of this Amber Beauty.

 



 

For the Gongfu tea ceremony - use the Yixing teapot to fill 1/4 of the pot to infuse with rolling boiled water and steep for 1'15" and can do more than 8 infusions with good timing control.
