Whats the Phoenix Method?
It is called Nodding Head 3 Times to symbolise making 3 bows to your guests as a sign of respect. For Dragon Well and most other teas, it is recommended that you pour water using the Phoenix method. This has several advantages: • Cool water from boiling point, so that you don’t need to wait and measure the temperature before you pour. • Oxygenate the water and make green tea tastes better! • It makes tea leaves appear more spongy.
