Steeping Suggestions
Leaf Quantity: 2.25 g/6oz cup Steep Time: 1 min. Water Temperature: 180 degrees
I've started to really crave this tea in the mornings. Make sure you brew no higher than 180degrees for 1 minute and it's delicious.
Make it right it'll taste right

For an excellent cup of tea make sure the water temperature is 180 degrees and that you add a little more than a teaspoon of tea for every 6 ounces of water after you've poured the water into the pot. You can steep the leaves a second time, this time pouring the water over the leaves. It makes a big difference and you'll really enjoy this tea.
Probably will not purchase again

It seemed to me weak in flavor and overall not very tasty. I appreciate that Upton has striven to offer a cup of organic green tea at such a low price, but I just can't bring myself to drink it. I did notice a previous reviewer had a preparation suggestion that might make the tea more tasty...
Good Value

This is pretty good for the price. I produced the best result when I followed the previous reviewer's suggestion and gave the tea a quick rinse, poured it off, then brewed for 60 seconds.
Good for multiples, but ditch the first one.

This is a very tasty tea & a VERY good bargain, giving three good infusions, if you do what you do with a sheng puerh: Pour hot water on, swirl it around for 5 seconds and _pour it off._ Then pour more on and let it brew. The first brew has a seaweedy note if you don't. Once you do, it's gone, and the tea's tasty and fragrant, w/a longish finish.
