The Danfe Method
Brew. Change one thing. Taste again.
- 01
Brew a baseline
Any leaf, any cup. You need something to compare to.
- 02
Change one dial
Hotter water. Longer steep. More leaf. Only one.
- 03
Taste side by side
Two cups on the table tell you more than any chart.
- 04
Write one line
"Sweeter, less dry." That's a tasting note. Done.
- 05
Keep what you like
Your palate is the authority. We just hand you the dials.
Try it right now
Feel the method
in one slow drag.

Soft and sweet the gentlest window for Himalayan green and white tea.
