This graceful Gaiwan, a part of our "White Crane" Tea Set, is adorned with delicate depictions of a white crane – a symbol of longevity and peace in Chinese culture. Back in imperial times, those majestic birds were embroidered on officials' robes to showcase their rank.
When you brew tea using this vessel in the Gong Fu Cha style, you create a concentrated brew that reflects the essence of the tea leaves. It's like unlocking a treasure trove of flavors and aromas. And, you can extract every bit of goodness from those tea leaves by adding hot water to them repeatedly. With high-quality teas, you can infuse the same leaves up to ten times or even more.
With each infusion, the tea undergoes a subtle transformation. The taste, color, and aroma – all evolve and shift, creating a dynamic tea experience. By savoring each infusion mindfully, you can appreciate the subtle nuances that arise. It's a sensory adventure that deepens your connection with the tea and heightens your tea appreciation.
NOTE: Each piece's glaze is unique. The actual colors and patterns may significantly differ from the ones in the photos.
NOTE: Teaware easily absorbs taste and aromas and should never be washed using detergents.
