Know before you buy
Because the teapot and cups are fully glazed on both the interior and exterior, they do not absorb tea oils. This makes the set highly versatile, allowing you to switch between different tea varieties without lingering flavors from previous brews.
No, this set is not dishwasher or microwave safe. Due to the handmade nature of the stoneware and the delicate wood-fired finish, we recommend hand-washing the pieces gently with warm water to preserve their integrity.
The fairness pitcher, or Gong Dao Bei, is essential for Gongfu brewing. It allows you to pour the tea from the teapot into the pitcher first, ensuring that every cup served has the exact same strength and flavor profile.
The wood-firing process gives each piece a unique finish that cannot be replicated by industrial kilns. This method creates subtle variations in the glaze and texture, ensuring that your specific set has a one-of-a-kind character.
Yes, this set is an excellent choice for beginners. It provides all the necessary components for a traditional Gongfu session in a manageable size, and the durable stoneware is forgiving and easy to handle during the brewing process.
