Our Formosa-style Young Hyson is harvested early in the season when the leaves are young and tender, then carefully hand-rolled into the distinctive twisted shape that gives this tea its name — \u003cem\u003ehyson\u003c\/em\u003e meaning \"flourishing spring\" in Chinese.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eIn the cup, Young Hyson delivers a clean, vegetal sweetness with a light body and a refreshing finish. It brews to a pale golden-green liquor with a delicate aroma that speaks to its careful, small-batch processing.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eA Tea Steeped in American History\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eYoung Hyson holds a unique place in American history — it was among the teas thrown into Boston Harbor during the Boston Tea Party on December 16, 1773. One of the most fashionable and expensive teas in colonial America, it was a prized commodity of the East India Company. That colonists were willing to destroy such a valuable cargo made their protest against British taxation all the more powerful. When you brew a cup of Young Hyson today, you're sipping a piece of that history.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eBrewing Guide\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eWater temperature:\u003c\/strong\u003e 160–175°F (70–80°C)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eSteep time:\u003c\/strong\u003e 2–3 minutes\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eAmount:\u003c\/strong\u003e 1 teaspoon per 8 oz of water\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eRe-steeps:\u003c\/strong\u003e 2–3 times\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003ch3\u003eAbout This Tea\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eStyle: Twisted-leaf green tea, Formosa\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eHarvest: Early season (young leaf)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eCaffeine: Moderate\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eFlavor notes: Grassy, sweet, clean, light-bodied\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cem\u003eThis product is sold as a loose-leaf herbal tea for culinary and beverage use only.
