Large-leaf, young leaf teas are known for their full flavor and smoothness. To attain this balance and avoid too much vegetal flavor, we recommend using slightly cooler water. If the water is too hot, the leaf will “stew�, creating a “spinachy� cup. Moderately hot water, 170F, with one teaspoon of leaf per cup and a steeping of 3 to 4 minutes provides 2 to 3 satisfying infusions.
