How to prepare a good japanese green tea.
  1. Place 1.5 tablespoons of green tea into the teapot.
  2. Pour hot water (200cc.) into two teacups or water cooler to adjust the water temperature. On the first pour, it will be about 176F (70-75C) which is the perfect temperature for brewing Sencha.
  3. Pour the warm water back into the Teapot and wait for 2 - 3 minutes as the Sencha or Gyokuro brews
  4. Pour tea from the teapot into each teacup alternately little by little, so that the quantity and taste of the tea is equal in each cup. Please pour all of the tea out from the Kyusu until the last drop, or else the second brewed cups will not taste as well.
  5. High quality tea leaves may be reused three times. Each infusion will have a unique flavor and aroma. Brew for a slightly shorter time (50-60 seconds) for the second infusion. Use slightly hotter water and a longer brew time for third and last infusion.
