How to Brew Jin Xuan No. 12 Loose Tea

Jin Xuan No. 12 loose leaf can be brewed hot for a cozy, creamy cup or cold for a smooth, lightly sweet refresh. Use the hot method when you want comforting richness fast, or choose cold brew for a clean, mellow finish with no bitterness.

Heat the Water

Heat fresh, filtered water to 95°C (200°F), just before boiling. This temperature helps release the tea’s natural richness without overpowering it.

Add the Tea

Use 3g of loose tea for a mug, or 1g for a small pot. Measuring correctly keeps the flavor smooth and not too strong.

Add Water

Pour 240 ml of hot water into a mug, or 30 ml into a small pot. The right water amount ensures even extraction and a clean taste.

Steep or Brew Time

Steep 4 minutes for a mug. For a small pot, brew 75 seconds for the first round and 90 seconds for the second round.

Chill the Water

Use cold, filtered water chilled to 4°C (40°F). Cold water extracts gently, preserving the tea’s clean and mellow character.

Add the Tea

Add 1g of loose Jin Xuan tea to your container. This amount keeps the cold brew light and balanced.

Add Water

Pour 50 ml of cold water over the tea. The smaller volume creates a smooth, concentrated brew.

Steep Time

Refrigerate and steep for 12 hours, then strain the leaves. Serve cold or over ice for a clean, creamy refresh.

Brewed to Perfection

Premium leaves, precise roasting, and the aroma that makes moments memorable.
