Question 1

What is Gongfu?

Accepted Answer

The term describes a traditional Chinese tea ceremony that focuses on the proper preparation and appreciation of tea. Loosely translated as “with great skill”, Gongfu treats the steeping and handling of the leaves as both an art and a science. The goal is to maxamize flavor and aroma so that the finer aspects of the tea can be experienced and enjoyed.
