Kuding tea (also known as 'Ku Ding Cha') is a medicinal tea that has been used in traditional Chinese medicine for thousands of years. The word 'Ku' means bitter and the Chinese character for 'Ding' ('丁')means 'spike' as is the shape this tea. Needle kuding tea, is commonly known as 'bitter nail tea'. The leaves used to make this tea are from the evergreen Ilex Kuding cha plant which is grown in China. The long narrow leaves are twisted together to form distinctive long stick/spike-like shapes. Another distinctive feature, as its name implies, is its bitter taste. Though, some drinkers find that the bitterness is followed by a slightly sweet taste.
When making Kuding tea it's a good idea to use just 2 needles/spikes if
it's your first experience of the tea because of its strong bitter
taste. As you become accustomed to the tea, then you could increase it
to 3-4 needles. Begin by warming your tea cup and teapot with hot water.
Then steep the Kuding tea in the pot using hot water for two minutes.
The spikes can be used several times - after the second brewing you will
need to increase the steeping time.
