How to brew Long Jing (Dragon Well) green tea | Gaiwan | Tumbler | Teapot | ZhenTea

[@TheQuiltedNorthern]

I just bought some long jing from West lake area and I’m very excited to try

[@teaformeplease]

I love brewing long Jing in a tumbler. The leaves are so much fun to munch while I sip :)

[@ZhenteaCa]

I couldn't agree more!

Enjoyed this presentation

I just tried this in my glass cup and can’t believe it actually worked! I thought my Long Jin would get bitter for sure. The only con is the liquid is way too hot to drink even after the 75 seconds. I added some cold water to cool it down. I’ll probably stick to 185f max if i’m drinking from a glass cup, but the 210f was actually still very delicious! I think this method would work better in a teapot since the tea will cool down once you pour some in a small cup.

I'm glad your experimenting and found a way that works for you! That's the spirit! Let us know how you like the results in a tea pot! 🫖

Phil, you guys' channel is the best tea channel I've come across. I've never brewed Long Jing gongfu style before, and I wanted to give it a go, tonight. This video was exactly what I needed. You guys are awesome. 👍👍

[@ZhenteaCa]

No! You're awesome! Made my night, thanks dude!

[@TheShurikenZone]

@ZhenteaCa HaHA! I just got done with the second infusion, and your instructions were right on the money! Drinking great tea and watching Alien- I'm living the dream! 😆

I've was told long ago that the best long jing (龙井) stands at attentions like little soldiers at the bottom of the glass (tumbler).

[@svenfeldmann6709]

How long will Long Jin keep in the cupboard? It's packed in airtight but not vacuumed bags.

Can all green tea(Gyokuro, Sencha, Guizhou Emerald Green Tea) be brewed at boiling water?

[@TallowQueen]

In china i was at a teamaster. And she always put the hot wayer on the leaves for 10 seconds then pour it out. What do you say about this? Do you know? It was in hongzou.

[@ZhenteaCa]

Tenemos un lung ching exquisito y un 'no' lung ching fantástico de Guangdong. zhentea.ca/shop/chinese-tea/?swoof=1&product_cat=green-tea Lo siento si mi español es malo. Utilicé el traductor de google. ❤️

[@ethanxrosen]

Could you explain more about why you guys use boiling water vs ~80-85C? I find boiling water makes the tumbler too hot to hold. Good video!

[@ZhenteaCa]

Quality Chinese teas require boiling water to bring out the full/best flavor of it, especially the mouthfeel. But feel free to lower the water temperature if the tea is bitter or astringent when brewed with boiling water. Indeed the boiling water makes the tumbler hot and hard to sip from. If I want a ready to drink tea quickly, what I usually do at home is adding boiling water first, then cold water to bring down the temperature. But of course, you can always brew tea at your preferred temperature. :)

[@miltonnoguchi4956]

Buy and use Double Insulated GLASS Tea Cups, so you can hold it without getting your fingers/hand burnt. The transparent Clear Glass Tea Cups allow you to see what Color the Tea is, and that's also part of the Total Experience. Sip the brew, sucking in lots of air too, to cool it down, as you drink. That also helps the inside of your mouth, tongue, nose, and throat, to get all the aromas, flavors, and taste of this Tea. It's a really complex experience, but one that you will enjoy immensely, as it unfolds in your mouth and nose being sent on to your brain for the wonderful goings on!!!

Not ready to give up scale and timer yet, I'm still new and don't want to mess it up. Tea has become a precious commodity to me. Geez trying not to be a snob lol

[@ZhenteaCa]

As long as we are all brewing and enjoying tea ;)

[@horrudu4081]

A big lesson for me was that there is not one correct way to brew tea. There is no mess-up, only lessons. One can not learn without paying tuition.

[@nonshowbizbiker]

Can you cold brew longjing?

[@ZhenteaCa]

Yes, of course! Don't hesitate to try it out!

[@bruceleeblindswordsmannink1474]

Good for the human body different health benefit s from this

[@timeck7033]

Came here because I stumbled upon your Instagram Story. Really like your video style! How much leaf did you use in your gaiwan?

[@ZhenteaCa]

Hi Tim. Thanks for watching! We used 3g of leaf in the gaiwan.

[@Athrunwong]

Now I want some tea…

[@ZhenteaCa]

That's what we're all about! ❤️🍵❤️

[@What1drink]

good way to ruin your tea tried the difference you need to use more leaf for the same amount of water compared to brewing at 80 degrees so the result is you are using up more tea and getting less of what the leaves have to offer how do you square that circle?

[@modestarosete1207]

🙂gracias

[@davidbepis3797]

I have Just bought some longjing tea and I didn't know that i can brew the tea even four or five times

[@ZhenteaCa]

[@letsgoletsgoletsgoletsgoletsgo]

I was raised around tea drinkers , so all this is very familar ....except for that figurine for you to pour water over hahahah that is so extra

[@ZhenteaCa]

We love the tea baby! 👶

[@bruceleeblindswordsmannink1474]

Very Eazy to do Eazy said an done

[@kevinmonceaux2101]

A ninety millimeter gaiwan? Is that it's diameter or height? :-)

[@Cl458ed]

Wrong from begining! Longjin must be brew with lower water temp.

[@timothyjadet]

From sight, your longjing seems to be a bad quality one. Where did you buy it?

[@xxxLoneWolfxvx]

Why do you sound like a guy but there’s definitely a girl brewing the tea. 🤣

[@xxxLoneWolfxvx]

You’re kinda goofy
