Common questions

Frequently asked questions

Why use a glass teapot for Chinese tea?
A clear glass teapot lets you see the tea leaves and the infusion, which can be useful for flowering tea and visual brewing. Check the specific product for heat guidance and cleaning instructions; glass appearance alone does not establish heat resistance or stovetop suitability.
Is glass or ceramic better for tea?
Both are excellent. Glass is ideal for visual appreciation and flavor neutrality — perfect for green tea, white tea, and flowering teas. Ceramic (like Yixing clay) absorbs tea oils and enhances flavor over time — ideal for Pu-erh and oolong. Many tea lovers use both depending on the tea type.
Can glass teaware be used for Gongfu ceremony?
Yes. Glass gaiwans and fairness pitchers are popular in Gongfu tea sessions. They allow you to observe the tea liquor color clearly and monitor the steeping process visually. Glass is especially popular for lighter teas where visual appreciation is part of the experience.
