每一场功夫茶席最终都归结于那几种形状 — 依泥料、釉色、容量,及每一件器物在不同冲泡间如何持温而选。

侍茶师精选
The people who match leaf to clay
我们的器具推荐由现役茶专家撰写 — 而非泛泛之才。他们将每只特色壶,与实际以此壶冲泡过的茶叶搭配呈现。
Clay is not decoration. A 90ml zhū ní pot will pull aromatics out of a Mí Lán Xiāng that a porcelain gaiwan simply cannot. I choose the vessel before I choose the water.

For dancong I want a small pear-shape in zhū ní — high-fire, tight pour, no glaze. The clay holds the second infusion at the temperature the first one taught it.

如何使用本站
Three paths in, one cabinet out
Start with a 110ml porcelain gaiwan, a glass fairness pitcher, and two tasting cups. We have a curated starter shelf at €120 — and free leaf via tea.gratis to brew in it.
Read the clay guide before you buy. *Zhū ní* for oolong, *zǐ ní* for aged pu-erh, *duàn ní* for white and yellow. Volume matters more than ornament.
We supply restaurants and tearooms with matched sets — 12 to 60 covers — through the wholesale desk at shop.thetea.app. Lead time three weeks.
购买前须知
Questions we get most weeks
How do I season a new Yixing teapot?
Rinse with boiling water, brew the tea you intend to dedicate to it, and pour the liquor over the outside for the first three sessions. Full method on the Yixing guide page.
One pot, one tea — is it really necessary?
For unglazed clay, yes. The pores hold oils from previous brews. Dedicate a *zhū ní* pot to oolong and a *zǐ ní* pot to ripe pu-erh — never cross them.
Where do your pots actually come from?
Dīngshān (Yixing) workshops for clay, Jingdezhen for porcelain, Fújiàn co-ops for bamboo. Every listing names the workshop. No anonymous stock.
Can I learn the ritual itself somewhere?
Yes — tea.school runs a four-week gongfu course, and tea.events lists in-person ceremonies in Berlin, Lisbon, and Saint Petersburg.
