Curled Xiangluo leaves and honeyed notes
Xiangluo is named for its curled, snail-like dry-leaf shape. The maker’s notes describe a honeyed aroma and a mellow, sweet cup. The tea opens out as it brews.
Look at the infused leaves as well as the dry tea. Water, leaf quantity and steeping time will change the color and strength of the liquor.

Brewing and storage
As a starting point for a small gaiwan, use 2–5 g of tea with water around 90–95°C (194–203°F). Begin with a short 2–5 second infusion, decant promptly, then taste before adjusting later pours. A larger cup will need a different leaf-to-water balance and timing.
Separate the leaves from the liquor between infusions. Reseal the tea after use and store it dry, away from light, moisture and strong odors. The stated shelf life is 1,825 days; follow the production and expiry dates on the actual pack.
