How We Like It

Outdoors when camping & the sun is just going down. Or at night with a glass of whiskey. We pour the just boiled water into the cup first and then place the tea leaves into the water brewing for around 4 minutes.

 

Brewing Advice

Take a small-heaped scoop of loose tea per cup (1.5g) & brew in cooled, boiled water (around 95 degrees) for 3-4 minutes. The leaves can be re-infused once more.


The Story Behind The Tea

The tea leaves are from the Thyolo cultivar of the Camellia Sinensis (the tea plant) & has been named after the local city & district of Thyolo. Moto translates as fire.
