Two Easy Ways to Enjoy Your Tea, the Traditional or Casual Way
1. Gongfu-Style with a Gaiwan
For those who enjoy a mindful, ceremonial tea experience.
• Use a traditional Chinese gaiwan (lidded bowl).
• Add about 5g of tea leaves.
• Pour 85°C–90°C (185°F–194°F) water until the gaiwan is 1/4 full.
• Let the leaves awaken for about 3 seconds, then fill the gaiwan to the top.
• After 8–10 seconds, pour out the tea and enjoy.
• You can steep the same leaves around 5 times, each with its own evolving flavor.
2. Everyday Cup Method
Simple, quick, and perfect for daily enjoyment.
• Add tea leaves directly to your cup—about 10g for a 300ml cup (adjust to your taste).
• Fill the cup with 85°C–90°C (185°F–194°F) hot water.
• Let it steep and cool slightly, then sip directly from the cup.
• Pro tip: Don’t drink it all at once. Leave some tea at the bottom and refill with hot water for a smoother second round.
Water Quality Tip
To get the best taste, we recommend using purified or spring water. Good water brings out the full aroma and richness of high-quality green tea.

Crafted with Care
From fresh leaf to final cup—each step matters
Picking
Each leaf is handpicked, selecting one bud with one young, just-opening leaf (yi ya yi ye) to ensure peak freshness and tenderness.
Withering
Fresh leaves are spread out in a well-ventilated space for about 2 hours. This step allows some moisture to evaporate, promoting the formation of aroma precursors while reducing grassy notes.
Fixation (Shaqing)
Leaves are pan-fired in iron woks at 120–150°C (248–302°F) to halt enzymatic activity. This preserves the tea’s vibrant green color, reduces raw grassy taste, and begins forming its signature fresh aroma.
Rolling
A gentle rolling for about 8 minutes helps shape the leaves and enhances the smooth, full-bodied character of the brewed tea.
Drying
Leaves are dried at 80–100°C (176–212°F) to lock in flavor and bring the aroma to its peak.
Thoughtful Packaging
Natural outside, fresh inside
To reflect our commitment to sustainability, the outer box is made of eco-friendly kraft paper, bringing us closer to nature. Inside, the tea is sealed in a fresh-lock PC bag to preserve aroma and quality—even if you’re not drinking it right away.

Customer Reviews
I must say this is the BEST tea I've ever bought. The owner Mr Lee is helping me a lot, answering all my questions. The tea is perfect for regular drinking with hot water. Mr Lee recommended me the way of cold brew and it was awesome! I've been drinking Lee's Cha for months and left this comment. 👍
I always thought tea was astringent until I drank this green tea. The refreshing taste is like grass after rain, and it is very thirst-quenching. Drinking a cup in the afternoon is much more comfortable than coffee, it won't make you feel flustered, and it can also refresh you. I have recommended it to all my foreign friends!
I never thought green tea was so delicious! It has no bitterness, but a fresh herbal fragrance, and a sweet aftertaste after swallowing. When brewing with a glass cup, watching the tea leaves slowly unfold, like small leaves dancing in the water, it is so healing. Now I have to brew a cup every morning, and it has become my new life ritual.
