To fully appreciate Jhannu Oolong's complex character, follow these brewing guidelines:
- Water Temperature: Heat water to 85-90°C (185-195°F)

Premium Tea Leaves: Himalayan-Grown Camellia Sinensis
This exceptional oolong consists purely of carefully selected Camellia sinensis leaves from high-altitude Himalayan gardens. The tea plants grow in mineral-rich soil at elevations where cool mountain air and optimal humidity create perfect conditions for developing complex flavor compounds.
The leaves undergo a precise partial oxidation process, typically between 15-70%, which develops their characteristic flavor profile while retaining beneficial compounds. The traditional hand-rolling technique creates the distinctive pearl shape that allows for optimal extraction during brewing.
The high altitude cultivation results in slower growth, allowing the leaves to develop higher concentrations of flavor compounds and beneficial nutrients. Each batch is carefully monitored during processing to ensure the perfect level of oxidation that creates Jhannu's signature taste.
