This is interesting. I use near boiling water for Huangshan Maofeng whenever I make it, though not so often, and like the taste better than the Tea Hong recommended 85 to 90C, but use 80C as recommended for Longjing. I guess that’s because of personal taste too. However, I think with most oolong teas, using lower temperature than recommended is losing a lot of the taste. My stomach would be upset if the tea infused in low temperature and I drink it when it’s further cool down. Maybe I like tea so much is because that I like hot drinks much better for my body and tea is the most untiring daily hot drink.
