Ancient Chinese culture, rich in philosophy and tradition, has given the world countless wise sayings. One such proverb says, "To do a good job, you need good tools." This simple but profound truth is reflected in many areas of human activity, including the art of the tea ceremony.
The main reason for the extraordinary popularity of Yixing clay teapots is the excellent quality of the source material. Purple clay does not affect the aroma and taste of the brewed tea, it is able to absorb the tea infusion, due to which teapots that have been used for a long time have the ability to give aroma to simple boiling water. Tea brewed in a Yixing clay teapot cools down quite slowly, and the handle of the teapot does not heat up. Today, Yixing teapots have acquired the status of real works of art.
