FAQ

Questions & answers

Which tea should I start with?

Start with green tea for freshness, oolong for fragrance, black tea for comfort or puer when you want something deeper.

Do I need special equipment?

No. A mug, small pot or gaiwan is enough. The QR guide gives simple water and timing notes.

How long does the tea stay fresh?

Keep the tin closed, dry and away from heat. Most teas stay lively for months when stored this way.
