Kosbee Korean Cassia Seed is raw, unroasted jue ming zi (결명자, Cassia tora) grown in Korea — glossy whole seeds you roast yourself, light to dark, for the freshest nutty, coffee-like, caffeine-free tea, with no additives and 0 sugar.

Most cassia seed is sold already roasted, and it often arrives stale or tasting old. Kosbee keeps it raw, so you toast it fresh in a pan and brew it at its most fragrant. Each resealable pouch holds a generous 10.5 oz (300 g).

For generations, these small, glossy seeds were dry-roasted in a pan and brewed into a warm, nutty tea across East Asia — the toasty aroma filling the kitchen as they crackled. Kosbee brings them to you raw and fresh, never pre-roasted, so you can roast them to your own taste at home.

Raw Seeds You Roast Yourself

Pre-roasted cassia seed loses its aroma on the shelf and can taste flat or rancid by the time you brew it. Kosbee's seeds are raw and glossy, so you roast them fresh and decide how light or dark you want them.

They're a Product of Korea, clean and single-ingredient, in a 300 g bulk pouch.

What's in the Pouch

100% Korean Cassia Seed (Jue Ming Zi / 결명자, Cassia tora)

Raw, unroasted glossy seeds grown in Korea, with no additives.

Raw, So You Roast Them Fresh

Not pre-roasted and stale — roast them yourself, light to dark, for the freshest flavor.

A Nutrient-Dense Whole Seed

A naturally nutrient-dense seed that contains plant protein, calcium, iron, and potassium.

Caffeine-Free, 0 Sugar — Coffee Alternative

Dark-roasted and brewed strong, it's a nutty, caffeine-free stand-in for coffee.

The 10.5 oz (300 g) pouch is a generous bulk size; a serving is about 1 to 2 tablespoons (10 to 20 g).

How to Roast and Brew Korean Cassia Seed

First, roast: cassia seed should be roasted before brewing. Add the raw seeds to a dry pan (no oil) and toast over low-to-medium heat, stirring, until they crackle and smell nutty and toasty — about 5 to 10 minutes.

For tea, simmer 1 to 2 tablespoons (10 to 20 g) of roasted seeds in 1.5 to 2 quarts (1.5 to 2 liters) of water; boil, then steep on low for about 20 minutes, and chill it for a daily iced drink.

For a coffee alternative, roast the seeds darker and brew them strong in hot water — they take on a deep, nutty, espresso-like flavor, with no caffeine.

How to Enjoy It Safely

Cassia seed has a cooling character, so if you have a sensitive stomach or loose digestion, start with a small amount and a light brew, and enjoy it in moderation.

If you have low blood pressure or take prescription medication, talk to your doctor before drinking it regularly.

It is not recommended during pregnancy — if you are pregnant or nursing, please avoid it or talk to your doctor first.
