We here at Crimson Lotus Tea are in love with Jingmai. Jingmai is an amazing area with deep history and fantastic teas. We have blogged about our adventures in Jingmai. We wanted to create an affordable Jingmai cake and this blend is a result of that. This blend captures the essence of Jingmai. You have depth, body, floral features, and an amazing honey aroma. With some age these features will really develop. If you love Jingmai, you'll love "Jingmai LOVE"! Prefecture: Simao Elevation: 1300+ m Wood Fired Hand Blended "Crimson Lotus Tea’s Spring 2016 Jingmai LOVE is a great young sheng with a lot going on. It’s got some sweetness and honey, but a bit of sour rocking. The texture is the gem here with switching from cool to bubbly. This is a fun sheng to play with and have an energetic session with friends. I’d say this is a party tea or solo like me you get to a chill warm up before you dance around like an idiot around your tea table."--Oolong Owl Video Tour of Jingmai Brewing Instructions Use 5-10 grams of leaves and brew with 75-150ml ( 2.5-5oz ) of water at or near boiling.
