We love the look and feel of fine porcelain cups and gaiwans. Using a delicately crafted vessel with clean lines and beautiful proportions helps us appreciate the art in tea brewing.
A white porcelain gaiwan is our favorite medium to use when evaluating new teas. Unlike metals or cured Yixing clays, porcelain offers itself as a neutral vessel for tea.
A simple white background allows us to appreciate the pure color of the tea and offers a nice contrast for examining the brewed leaf. Delicate tea aromas have a lovely way of clinging to porcelain surfaces. We like to drink out of small porcelain cups and enjoy that "bottom of the cup" fragrance after each sip.
