THE GONG FU STYLE OF TEA PREPARATION
 
In Taiwan, in China, and increasingly in the West, tea aficionados are drinking their favorite oolong and green teas Gong Fu style. Successive brews of loose tea are poured into small ceramic cups to be shared and appreciated, steep by steep, by a gathering of friends. This ceremonial drinking style is meant to focus one's attention and relax the mind and spirit in a convivial, shared experience. Paying close attention to the evolving taste and aroma of the tea, slowing to observe the dance of its leaves against beautiful ceramic cups enhances one's appreciation of both the tea and the moment. There is nothing like Gong Fu to create a warm, intimate atmosphere among friends. Read more here...
