Default sencha fukujyu - how to brew?

I recently discovered that I had an ounce of Sencha Fukujyu that I had
forgotten about. I tried brewing it for 3 minutes with less than
boiling water, and it was horrible. Tasted like some sort of awful
spinach. I am aware that it is supposed to taste like spinach, but I
would like to know if anyone knows the proper temperature, time and
amount of leaf in order to brew this tea well.

I think it's supposed to taste like really good spinach.

(Try very cool water, even down to 150 degrees).

Rick.
