The right time to have Cachar Labac First Flush CTC Black Tea

Brewing the perfect cup of tea

Use filtered or bottled water for a clean taste. Heat the water until it reaches a rolling boil, then add 2.5–3 g of loose tea per cup. Allow the tea to steep for a span of 3–5 minutes, depending on your preference for strength. Once the time is up, strain the tea into your cup and it's ready.
