Use a small knife or pick to gently pry the edge of the cake.
Loosen a few grams at a time, breaking from the side rather than digging into the center.
Keep the leaves as whole as possible. For daily drinking, use 3–5 grams.
Rinse once with boiling water to awaken the leaves.
Then steep at 95–100 °C.
Steeping Time
1st infusion 120 sec
2nd infusion 20–30 sec
3rd–5th infusions 15–20 sec
6th and beyond +10–15 sec each
1. Take a deep breath. Let your body arrive in this moment.
2. Rinse your vessel with a bit of hot water — a simple act of respect.
3. Place the leaves. Notice their scent and texture before pouring.
4. Add hot water gently. Watch the leaves open. Stay present.
5. Sip in silence. Feel the warmth move through you.
6. Continue without rush. Refill when ready. Trust the Tea to guide the pace.
