How many cups can I prepare from 1 bag/canister of your tea?
Gyokuro and Sencha
One bag is usually 100g (3.5 ounces). 1-2 level teaspoons for 120 to 240cc (4 to 8 ounces) of hot water.
20-25 cups (not counting re-infusions) per bag.
Matcha
This excellent tea usually comes in a 30g (1.1 ounces) canister. 1/2 level teaspoon (2g) for 120 to 180cc (4 to 6 ounces) of hot water. 1 heaping spoonful if you use a chashaku (bamboo spoon).
15 to 20 servings per 30g canister.
Tea Bags
15 bags per box.
Sencha tea bags can be infused as many times as you like. With gyokuro, we recommend no more than two infusions per bag.
Do not move the tea bag back and forth during preparation (like you do with black tea). It will make the tea cloudy and a little bitter.
Let the bag sit for about 2 minutes. If you would like stronger tea, gently move it to and fro just before removing the bag.
