Origin
The tea plant Camellia sinensis is grown on plantations usually on a mountainside, preferably and best in a warm and humid climate. Think of countries like India, China, Japan and Kenya. The taste of tea is determined by the location of the plantation, climate, seasons and soil conditions. The higher the garden, the better the quality of the tea.
How do I store loose tea?
Loose tea is best stored airtight and dark. Preferably in a cool dry place. As a result, the tea stays tasty much longer. A tin that closes tightly is a good choice for storing your loose tea.
How do I make green tea?
If you make green tea, it is important to let the water cool to 70-80C degrees after boiling. If you use boiling hot water, the green tea will taste bitter and tart.
Put you tea in a tea strainer and then let it steep for 2-4 minutes. Per cup, use 1 scoop with the measuring spoon, which is about 2 grams.
