    Because someone asked: The music is “Sayonara, Hikaru” by Megu Wakakusa, from the “Hikaru no Go” anime soundtrack. I got introduced to the ancient board game Go through Hikaru no Go, so I recognized the music immediately…

    theoriticaly 10 mins allows a complete extraction of the active components, but it all depends on the quality of the tea. Some tea in Japan give around 200 mg of catechins after only 2 “quick” infusion of 45 sec to 1 min each

    This tea was carefully selected by Ms. R. Uchiyama. This tea has the highest concentration of polyphenols of those in our collection.
    This second harvest tea is of a very high quality, and of a very mild taste.

    Even after an infusion time of 10 minutes (5g in a 250ml hot water, recommended by doctors for cancer patients) it does not become too bitter. It is an ideal medicinal tea that can be enjoyed on a daily basis.

    I call this LADY TEA, gentle and elegant.

    I’ve also learned that you should usually let green tea steep for 2 minutes. If it is steeped any longer, it can turn bitter. However, more antioxidants (beneficial molecules that prevent cell damage) are released into the tea when it is steeped for a longer time.

    Your are right. It is too long, the time for the first infusion is 1 - 2 min.
