I use a small teaspoon of Leo’s Tieguanyin Light in my tea mug (I think it is about 250 cc) and it is great. In subsequent infusions, I can go for 2, 3, 4, or even 5 minutes. I once measured a small teaspoon is about 5 gram Tieguanyin. If I use Tieguanyin Deep Brown, 2 minutes is quite strong, but great if you drink it while hot. I do 1 minute and a half if I like it lighter. I can also make it very strong using very hot water and 3, 4 minutes of infusion for adding sugar (raw, of course) and milk in it. Great tasting.
