Buddha Hand Oolong gets its name from the large, hand like leaves of 'Citron' tea variety from which it is derived and the Buddhist monks that first cultivated it for ceremonial teas. We like Buddha Hand for its thick, smooth taste and lively aroma. Buddha Hand is a great soother and like our other Oolongs it is wonderful through 2 or even 3 infusions.
Use 2 teaspoons of Buddha Hand to every one cup of just under boiling mineral or filtered water. The steep time for each infusion should be kept to 4 to 5 minutes.
