The Science Behind the Brew
Prepare
3 Variables
Tea-to-water ratio · Temperature · Steeping time
Why it matters
The way you brew your oolong changes how its aroma, flavor and tea compounds are extracted.
Brew
Use 2–3 g of tea, approximately 20–30 rolled leaves (about 1 spoon).
Choose your water temperature for the first infusion:
100°C / 212°F for 2 minutes, or 85°C / 185°F for 2.5 minutes.
Re-infuse & Enjoy
At 100°C / 212°F: second infusion, 2.5 minutes; third infusion, 3 minutes.
At 85°C / 185°F: second infusion, 3 minutes; third infusion, 3.5 minutes.
The flavor may be lighter by the fourth infusion; steep for 5–10 minutes.

Brand Story
A time-honored practice, made easy to return to.
ROOTED IN BOTANICAL TRADITION
Tieguanyin comes from Anxi, Fujian, where this light-aroma style is known for its delicate floral character. Zenbotanique draws on that tradition, bringing Anxi oolong into daily care, not as a promise of treatment.
A DISTINCTIVE FLORAL AROMA
Tieguanyin is valued for its delicate floral character, which unfolds gently as the leaves steep.
MADE FOR MULTIPLE INFUSIONS
One serving of leaves is not finished in a single cup. Across successive brews, the character of the leaves changes, and each infusion becomes its own quiet moment.
RETURN TO IT EVERY DAY
What matters is not how much a tea promises, but whether you can return to it quietly and consistently.
FAQ
Is this tea flavored?

Loose leaf, in rolled pellets. Use 2–3 g, about 20–30 pellets (1 scoop), per brew.
Which water temperature should I use?
100°C / 203°F gives a shorter first steep, 85°C / 185°F gives a slightly longer, gentler first steep.
