About Me:

For the past few months I have been drinking a lot of loose leaf gongfu style tea. On this website I will be making reviews AKA teaviews of the teas I drink and sharing where I buy them.
Hopefully by doing this I will learn more about the teas I drink and get more people to drink tea!

What is Gongfu Cha?

Gongfu Cha or Gongfu Style tea is a method of brewing loose leaf tea.
You brew larger ammounts of tea in a smaller vessel over several steeps(depending on the type of tea it could be 6-20 steeps).
Normally the tea is brewed in something called a gaiwan, it has a lid so you can brew the tea then pour the water out without getting the leaves in your cup.
This is a gaiwan:

In my opinion it makes tea taste better and is a more fun way to drink tea.
The youtube channel Jesses Teahouse has a great video explaining all the basics of Gongfu tea: Jesses teahouse teaism video
-I did not make this video, the youtube channel Jesses Teahouse made the video I am just adding this link because it has a lot of good information!
