The great writer Lu Xun said, "If you drink tea well, you will drink good tea, it is a kind of bliss. But in order to enjoy it, you must first cultivate gongfu experience. In addition, special sensations come during training." There is a very important link in these words, and it concerns the utensils used for drinking tea.
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.
In China, in the city of Yixing (Chinese: 宜兴, pinyin: Yíxīng) there is the largest center of traditional production of teapots from Yixing clay. It is ideal for the workshop production of the finest ceramics, which have many small details, has the ability to "breathe", but does not let water through. This useful property allows you to create ideal teapots for brewing in every sense.
