Tea lovers now have a new destination in Singapore with the opening of Jing Studio at The House of Tan Yeok Nee, alongside the recently launched BAR KAP cocktail bar. The teahouse is a short four-minute walk from Dhoby Ghaut MRT Station.

The House of Tan Yeok Nee, one of Singapore’s last remaining Four Grand Mansions, was built between 1882 and 1885 and is now a designated national monument. Within this historic space, Jing Studio occupies a beautifully renovated section, blending traditional details with modern interiors to create a calm and intimate teahouse experience.

Jing Studio reimagines traditional tea culture, offering a curated menu of single-origin brews, refined blends, and restorative herbal infusions, all guided by a Tea Master.

A highlight from the Single Estate tea selection is the Ember Road ($12), a premium black tea from Yunnan with honeyed notes and a hint of dried apricot. If you prefer something richer, the Toasted Velvet ($8)—available hot or cold with milk—is a standout. This oolong from Nantou, Taiwan, carries roasted chestnut, milk chocolate, and caramel undertones.

From the Blended Tea menu, the Citrus Breeze ($8) is a refreshing green tea from Sichuan with light citrus and floral notes, while the Coco Pulut Pu-erh ($8) is a unique choice, blending dark Pu-erh tea from Yunnan with creamy coconut milk.

For a caffeine-free option, the Herbal Nectar ($7) features South African rooibos tea infused with longan, rose, and jujube, creating a calming, comforting cup perfect for a relaxing tea break.
