GABA Tea is a natural source of GABA. First developed by Japanese researchers 20 years ago, GABA Tea has become daily health drink in Japan. In stead of oxidized, GABA Tea is made in nitrogen-rich atmosphere to enhance the natural GABA on tea leaves. Formosa Mingjian GABA Oolong is made of high grade whole leaf and contains 174mg GABA per 100g of tea (Japanese standard of 150mg GABA per 100g of tea). For more information related to GABA, please visit our GABA TEA INFO. Health Info What is GABA? Why GABA is good for you? Some benefits of GABA: * Reduces high blood pressure * Mental alertness * Weight loss aid * Anti-oxidant * Anti-bacterial * Stress and anxiety relief * Alleviates alcoholic withdrawal symptoms * Prevents and cures hangovers * Promote liver health read more Brewing: For most of the half ball style Oolong tea, the best water temperature is "just boiled and cools a little". You can start with 1 tsp for 120cc(4oz) 95°C(203F) water, steam about 1 min for the first brew to unroll the leaves. 30-40 seconds for the second infusion, and add 20 seconds for the following infusions. Provides at least 5 infusions, up to 9 infusions. The tea leaves need to be fully expanded in the container, remember not to put too much loose tea to avoid over packed. One tip to keep in mind is the amount of dry loose tea should be around 1/5 or smaller of the teaware or container, after brewing, the tea leaves will expand to 80%-90% of the container. Once you get familiar with the tea, you may explore your own brewing method. Gaba tea can be brewed according to Dongding Oolong style, or with water of lower temperater.   Teaware: Gongfu teaware or Yixing pots suit best for Oolong tea, glassware, Gaiwan, or porcelain teaware are also good personal choices.
