Q1: What makes Yixing clay special for tea?
Yixing Zisha clay is famous for its micro-porous structure, which absorbs tea oils over time and enhances future brews with deeper aroma and flavor.
Q2: Does this gaiwan need seasoning before use?
No formal seasoning needed—just rinse with hot water before your first brew and let the clay naturally develop character with time.
Q3: Can I brew different teas in the same gaiwan?
For the best experience, we suggest dedicating one clay gaiwan per tea type (e.g. one for oolong, one for ripe Pu-erh) to avoid flavor crossover.
Q4: Is this microwave or dishwasher safe?
No. Avoid both—this piece is crafted for traditional use and should only be rinsed and air-dried.
