Brewing Steps:

Heat the Water
Bring water close to a boil, then let it sit for a few seconds so it cools to around 95°C. Bring the water close to a boil—ideally around 95°C. But don’t worry too much. Just let the water sit for about 30 seconds after boiling, and you’re good to go.

Add the Tea
Put about 1 teaspoon of tea per cup of water. You don’t need to measure exactly—Golden Eyebrow is forgiving.

Steep Briefly
Pour the hot water over the tea leaves. Let it steep for 5–10 seconds in your container (like in a small teapot,  gaiwan or even in French Press and your mug). If you’re using a transparent vessel, watch the color of the brew — a light golden hue is ideal. Trust your eyes more than the clock; it’s one of the best ways to learn the perfect timing.

Enjoy
Sip and enjoy its smooth, sweet taste—notes of honey, malt, and light flowers. 

Re-steep
These leaves are good for multiple infusionsFor the first few rounds, keep the steeping time short (around 5–10 seconds) or even shorter. After the fifth infusion, you can start adding more time to bring out the remaining flavor.

Wuyishan: The Birthplace of Golden Eyebrow

Nestled in the misty mountains of Fujian, Wuyishan is a UNESCO World Heritage site and the ancestral home of China’s finest black teas. Golden Eyebrow, crafted from early spring buds in the remote Tongmu Village, is known for its golden strands and layers of honeyed, floral notes. Grown in the mineral-rich soil of the Wuyi cliffs, each leaf carries the spirit of centuries-old tea tradition — refined, resilient, and full of soul.
