Thank you!
This is not so expensive Yixing Teapot but it’s good. It mayn’t be one of those very well made clay teapot but it makes good oolong tea. :) I’m glad that I bought this teapot and it is part of my mini collection of Yixing teapot. Thank you for this!
Pu erh for one, or two
I have had this pot for a couple of months now. It is perfect for solo sessions and it makes delicious brews of shou or aged sheng pu erh. As it is fairly porous, the patina builds up quickly. It has a rustic charm. I strongly recommend it.
Much better than on pictures!
