News from the Republic (of Tea), Part II

Read the first installment of News from the Republic (of Tea)!

The second in the series from the Republic. This one's about the art of steeping. You're instructed to enjoy the nuances, the complexity, and the character of the tea, so take care not to leave one out!


If you prefer protocols with specifics, check out this steeping chart from the Republic. Every brand pretty much has their own.

    A protocol! How scientific! Although the engineer in me really wants something more precise than "short of boiling" :)

      So "short of boiling" = just wait about 5 minutes after the kettle goes off (boiling). I think :)
