brewing-information Description

A very light Chinese green tea, Young Hyson makes a smooth and delicately sweet flavored cup when brewed. Young Hyson green tea was our first green tea offering decades ago and has quickly become our most popular green tea selection.

This style of tea is prepared from young, thin green tea leaves and has a notably twisted leaf with a pale green hue. Containing less caffeine than traditional black teas, green teas are also high in healthy antioxidants!

 

brewing-information  Brewing Information

Brewing Tips: Our Young Hyson Green tea should be made with cold, filtered water that has been brought to a boil and then allowed to cool for 1 minute (170-180° F). Using one rounded teaspoon of loose leaf tea or one teabag for each cup required, pour the boiling water over the Chinese green tea leaves. Our Young Hyson Green tea should be steeped for 2-3 minutes. Once the ideal brewing time has been reached, the leaves should be removed to prevent further steeping. Decant and enjoy!

    Light and so refreshing. Frequently my evening cup of tea. I've had Young Hyson from other tea purveyors, but much prefer Mark T. Wendell's!

    This is by far my most favorite tea as I drink the Young Hyson daily by the pot. It is smooth and earthy without being too "grassy" or overly astringent. I drink it on its own and blended in my morning brew with a black leaf like the Cheericup or Assam. It is an ideal cup!

    Frequently Asked Questions

    How long does it take for my order to ship?

    We strive to ship orders within 2-3 days of receipt. However, due to the handcrafted nature of our products, combined with inventory limitations, some orders may take longer to ship. If there is a significant delay in shipping your order, we will contact you directly with details.

    Are your teas cultivated naturally? Are they Organic?

    All our teas are sourced from tea estates, suppliers and importers that we have personally worked with for decades and many for generations! We only purchase teas that have been cultivated naturally, devoid of pesticides and growth agents.

    Teas that have the term “Organic” in the products name have gone through additional certification by the country or origin and USFDA. Even though all our products are natural, we are unable to list them as Organic unless they have gone through these steps. Sometimes, this certification can be costly and time consuming for growers. Each country has different regulations, so many sell the teas to us without this extra labeling.

    How long does tea stay fresh?

    If sealed properly and stored away from extreme hot/cold temps and moisture, tea will stay as flavorful as the day you bought it, even after 18 months.

    How long should I brew my tea?

    Tea brewing times and water temperature can vary between tea varieties. Please consult this link to find the best method for your tea!
