I got some Chinese green tea as a gift from a friend in the mail.
I got "CangShan Mountain" green tea and "Southern Ginseng" ( I'm assuming green tea with ginseng mixed in ).
I know nothing about Chinese tea. Can you tell me anything about these teas?
I have a 1 cup Japanese green tea pot, a tea scale and a thermometer.
How can I prepare these teas?
Thanks much in advance for any informtion

Cang Shan is a mountain in Yunnan province. There are limitless ways you can prepare these, but I don't recommend the ginseng stuff in your kyusu, as the ginseng flavor will transfer to the pot. I like an infuser mug like
Adagio's for drinking miscellaneous stuff that's not fancy.
