Brewing

Brewing Temperature: 80.000000 - 85.000000
Process: Pour 1/3 water, add tea, swirl for "aroma awakening" (摇香, yáo xiāng), fill to full volume. Steep 2–3 minutes.
Tea Amount: 3 g per 150 ml (1:50 ratio).
Teaware: Glass tumbler (top-pouring method, 上投法) or white porcelain gaiwan (middle-pouring method, 中投法).
Water Temperature: 80.000000
Brewing Notes: When pouring, direct the stream along the cup wall (沿杯壁缓流), not into the center—this prevents "knocking off" down and clouding of the liquor.
