\"Teas<\/figure><\/div>\n\n\n

We have excellent things to discuss today. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

First, Saturday is the official start of summer. Woo hoo! With this week\u2019s temperatures in the 90s, it felt like the very essence of summer, as if the city had been dragged into a broiler by a surly dragon. But technically it was spring. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

We hope the days of roasting are few this season. Either way, we welcome the months of warmth sprawled out before us.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Second, Sunday is Father\u2019s Day. This counts as a bigger deal to Ku Cha than the summer kick-off. Fathers are special people, and on their annual day of celebration they deserve special treatment.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

As we cherish our fathers with extra zest<\/a> and warmth on Sunday, we might think about introducing them to exciting new things. For example, you guessed it, tea!\u00a0<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Yes, dad has gulped plenty of iced tea over the years. And every once in awhile he dunks a dusty old tea bag from a grocery store in a mug of hot water, and slugs it back.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Trust us here \u2014 dad can do better.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Beginning on Sunday, the rest of the week is all about papa. Let\u2019s get him started with a new passion.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Teas for Dad<\/h3>\n\n\n
\n
\"Teas
Teas for dad include Golden Monkey, a beautiful black tea.<\/figcaption><\/figure><\/div>\n\n\n

Organic Golden Monkey<\/h4>\n\n\n\n

This is a great place to start. Most commercial teas (for example, most of those tea bags picked up in grocery stores) normally are dismal and so bitter they almost demand a sweetener for balance. But Golden Monkey<\/a>, which comes from China\u2019s northern Fujian Province, is naturally sweet. Many describe the taste as honey-like, and we agree. We also pick up notes of sweet potato and chocolate. It\u2019s round in the mouth, simultaneously delicate and bold, and wonderful. Just like dad!<\/p>\n\n\n

\n
\"Among
Shou Mei ages beautifully, and is packed with health.<\/figcaption><\/figure><\/div>\n\n\n

Shou Mei, aka \u201cOld Man\u2019s Eyebrow.\u201d<\/h4>\n\n\n\n

Whether your dad is young, somewhere in the middle, or enjoying his retirement with good books and long walks, Shou Mei<\/a> is a smart choice for the fella.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Shou Mei is a white tea, meaning the oxidation it undergoes is minimal \u2014 less than both oolong and black teas. The best whites offer loads of flavor, but the power is more like that from a stiletto rather than a hammer: precise, sharp and potent. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

The tea also gets formed into cakes, like pu-erh (more about pu-erh below), and as a result is a wonderful candidate for aging.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

But Shou Mei\u2019s fame revolves around its health-giving properties. The tea improves immune systems and skin complexion, and is mildly detoxing.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Keeping dad healthy is important. It\u2019s time to get him sipping Shou Mei in the mornings and throughout the day.<\/p>\n\n\n

\n
\"Que
Any tea celebration should include a rock oolong.<\/figcaption><\/figure><\/div>\n\n\n

Que She, aka \u201cSparrow Tongue\u201d<\/h4>\n\n\n\n

A tea tribute to dad<\/mark><\/a> without a rock oolong? Don\u2019t let it happen! <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Rock oolongs all come from China\u2019s famous WuYi Mountains, in the northern part of Fujian Province near the Jiangxi Province. The name refers to the teas\u2019 environment: rocky! The highest point in the WuYi\u2019s reaches 7,080 feet \u2014 not as high as the tallest peak in Boulder (South Boulder Peak hits 8,549). The mountains appear dramatic, however, as the lowest point in the WuYi range is just 660 feet. Meanwhile, the city of Boulder\u2019s elevation is 5,328.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Tea lovers prize rock oolongs for their distinctive flavors, the result  in part of low-yields from bushes that thrive on unusually parsimonious soils. While WuYi counts as a major tea production area in China (in fact, it is believed that both black and oolong teas were first crafted in the region), the best rock oolongs remain somewhat rare, as the mountain bushes do not produce huge amounts of leaves.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Sparrow Tongue<\/a> rock oolong\u2019s name suggests the especially slender leaves, roughly the shape of sparrow\u2019s tongues (in case you\u2019ve never seen one \u2014 neither have we! \u2014 it\u2019s narrow). In Chinese, the tea is called Que She.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

This tea is soft and fragrant. Sips conjure visions of misty moors, or even April snows. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Dad will fall in love with Que She.<\/p>\n\n\n

\n
\"Teas
When putting together a list of teas for dad, Immortal Tea is a must.<\/figcaption><\/figure><\/div>\n\n\n

Immortal Tea<\/h4>\n\n\n\n

The name alone tells you why this is a winning tea for Father\u2019s Day. We want our dads around us forever.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Unlike the other teas in this list, Immortal Tea<\/a> does not come from Camellia sinensis<\/em>, the tea bush. But unlike many common herbal teas, it is deeply rooted in Chinese culture.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Immortal tea relies upon two antioxidant and adaptogenic compounds for its power: Jiao Gu Lan and ginseng.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Jiao Gu Lan is a climbing vine from the same family of plants that includes cucumbers and melons. It grows wild in Southern China, and is widely used to fight stress and boost cardiovascular health.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Ginseng is a root found in mountainous regions extending from Russia\u2019s Far East to the Korean Peninsula. Like Jiao Gu Lan, people use ginseng to manage stress and increase energy<\/mark><\/a>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Combined in one tea, the plants provide energy and a sense of calm, without caffeine.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

We want our dads to stick around for a long time. Immortal tea can help.<\/p>\n\n\n

\n
\"Sui
Sui Yue Liu Xiang is a spectacular ripe pu-erh, and a perfect tea for dads.<\/figcaption><\/figure><\/div>\n\n\n

Sui Yue Liu Xiang, aka \u201cThe Fragrance of Age\u201d<\/h4>\n\n\n\n

As it was with rock oolong, no tea-oriented celebration of dad is complete without a ripe pu-erh, the fermented teas sought after by tea aficionados around the world and savored across China.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Tea artisans craft pu-erhs in China\u2019s Yunnan Province, which is in the southern part of the country and bordering Vietnam, Laos and Myanmar. The key difference between ripe pu-erh and other oxidized teas is fermentation. The process gives all ripe pu-erhs distinctive, earthy flavors that tea lovers crave.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

This pu-erh, like most, is formed into cakes and ages wonderfully, especially in Colorado\u2019s dry climate. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Sui Yue Liu Xiang<\/a> brews strong and smooth, with notes of pipe-tobacco and citrus. It can be re-infused dozens of time in the gong-fu style<\/a>, an exercise that reveals how the flavors evolve during brewings.<\/p>\n\n\n

\n
\"Dragon
Make sure to include Dragon Well Superior tea, from the 2020 harvest for Father’s Day.<\/figcaption><\/figure><\/div>\n\n\n

Dragon Well Superior, from the 2020 harvest.<\/h4>\n\n\n\n

It\u2019s not the fire-breathing creature of myth that inspires us to suggest this for dad (although we think an awful lot of dads think dragons are cool). Instead, in addition to the marvelous flavor, it\u2019s the catechins \u2014 antioxidants found in Chinese green teas.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

This tea, also called Long Jing, comes from China\u2019s far eastern Zhejiang Province, and is renowned as one of the country\u2019s top 10 green teas. We now stock Dragon Well Superior from the excellent 2020 harvest.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Dragon Well Superior<\/a> produces a golden brew with a distinct, nutty aroma and a full, round flavor. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

It\u2019s got \u201cdad\u201d written all over it.
