Know before you buy
Jiangpo clay is a unique Yixing clay known for its porous nature. Over time, the unglazed surface absorbs the essential oils of the tea, which can subtly soften the brew and enhance the flavor profile of your favorite leaves.
No, this teapot does not require an external filter. It is designed with an integrated spout structure that effectively manages tea leaves during the pouring process, making it ideal for traditional Gongfu brewing.
Semi-handmade means the teapot is crafted using a combination of traditional molds and manual shaping by skilled artisans. This process ensures consistent structural integrity while maintaining the unique, human-touched character expected of authentic Yixing ware.
A 280 ml capacity is versatile, making it perfect for a solo Gongfu session or for serving two to three people. It is sized to provide enough volume for multiple infusions without being overly bulky.
Simply rinse the teapot with hot water after each use and allow it to air dry thoroughly with the lid off. Avoid using soap or detergents, as the porous clay will absorb these chemicals and negatively impact the flavor of future brews.
Because Yixing clay is porous, it is best to dedicate one teapot to a single type of tea, such as Pu-erh, Oolong, or Black tea. This prevents flavor cross-contamination and allows the clay to 'season' properly with the specific tea profile you prefer.
