Top 8 Questions Foreign Customers Ask About Chinese Tea

We’ve compiled the most frequently asked questions from global customers — covering tea types, brewing methods, health benefits, and buying tips — to help you better understand Chinese tea culture and product quality.

Chinese tea is primarily categorized into six main types: Green Tea, Black Tea, Oolong Tea, White Tea, Yellow Tea, and Dark Tea.

The correct brewing method varies by type of tea. For example, green tea should be brewed with water around 80°C for about 2-3 minutes, while black tea requires boiling water and a steeping time of 3-5 minutes. Using high-quality tea leaves and appropriate utensils (such as a Yixing clay pot) can enhance the flavor.

Chinese tea is rich in antioxidants, which can help reduce the risk of heart disease, improve digestion, boost immunity, and have anti-inflammatory and weight-loss benefits.

Chinese tea culture has a history exceeding 4,700 years, dating back to the time of Shen Nong. The formal establishment of tea culture is marked by Lu Yu’s Classic of Tea during the Tang Dynasty.

Choose different types of tea based on personal preference. Those who prefer a light taste might opt for green or white tea, while those who enjoy a richer flavor may choose black or oolong tea. Experimenting with various samples can help you find the perfect match.

Chinese tea emphasizes natural flavors and production techniques, typically without adding other ingredients. Western tea often includes flavored teas (with sugar, milk, or spices). Additionally, Chinese tea culture places significant emphasis on the ritual and spiritual enjoyment during the tasting process.

When purchasing, choose reputable suppliers to ensure the quality and freshness of the tea. Pay attention to the production date, shelf life, and whether it has passed relevant quality certifications. Understanding proper storage methods for different types of tea is also crucial.

Chinese tea ceremony involves etiquette, such as serving tea with both hands, gently smelling the tea aroma, and savoring the tea slowly. In formal settings, the host will pour tea for guests first as a sign of respect. Drinking tea in small sips demonstrates politeness.
