Original-ore green clay tea ware is one of the most popular tea ware materials on the market today. The green clay category (Benshan green clay and dark green clay, often collectively called green clay in the market) has unique characteristics and is especially suitable for brewing various types of tea. The core characteristics of green clay are a medium-to-loose sintering density, excellent breathability, moderate heat retention, and it does not easily make the tea liquor bitter or astringent. Therefore, using original-ore green clay tea ware can provide you with a fresher tea-drinking experience.

The teas most suitable for brewing with original-ore green clay tea ware include:

  • 1. Green tea, Anji white tea, yellow tea (such as Junshan Yinzhen, Huoshan Huangya): The heat retention of green clay can perfectly preserve the fresh and brisk character of the leaves, making them less likely to be stewed.
  • 2. Light-aroma Tieguanyin, Taiwanese high-mountain tea, Dongding oolong (lightly fermented): Original-ore green clay tea ware can bring out an elegant orchid fragrance and make the tea liquor fresher and more brisk.
  • 3. Aged raw Pu'er and raw Pu'er aged for many years: Brewing in original-ore green clay tea ware provides excellent breathability, which can disperse off-flavors in raw Pu'er and highlight its returning sweetness.
  • 4. Lightly fermented black tea (such as Jin Junmei, Zhengshan Xiaozhong): Suitable for people who pursue fresh fruity aromas; they can avoid an overly heavy, cloying taste.

However, for young raw Pu'er, caution is needed when using original-ore green clay tea ware, as there is still a risk of bitterness and astringency. Overall, original-ore green clay tea ware can not only enhance the quality of your tea, but is also an essential choice for those pursuing high-quality tea.
