The best way to brew oolong tea Gongfu style is to use a small gaiwan or teapot, a relatively high tea-to-water ratio, hot water, and short repeated infusions, adjusting time and temperature according to the specific oolong.
Loose leaf Chinese tea generally provides greater flavor complexity and a more expressive drinking experience than conventional tea bags because whole leaves have more room to expand and release aroma, although high-quality tea bags can still produce excellent results.
