Yinchen Studio Shui Ping Yixing Teapot

Goose Yellow Zhuni is prized for its high plasticity and delicate, dense texture. Its unique mineral composition allows it to retain heat effectively and soften the profile of high-aroma teas, resulting in a smoother, more nuanced brew.

With a 110ml volume, this teapot is perfectly sized for solo sessions or brewing for two people. It is specifically designed for Gongfu-style tea, where small, concentrated infusions are preferred.

The Shui Ping shape and Zhuni clay are ideal for highly aromatic, rolled, or twisted leaf teas. We recommend using it for Oolong, Yancha, Tieguanyin, and Dan Cong to best highlight their complex fragrance and flavor profiles.

The 7-hole filter is designed to provide a consistent, steady pour while effectively preventing tea leaves from entering your cup. It offers a balanced flow rate that is ideal for the rapid infusions typical of Gongfu brewing.

Yes, it is recommended to season your teapot by rinsing it with boiling water and steeping a small amount of your chosen tea in it for several hours. This helps remove any residual clay dust and allows the pot to begin absorbing the oils of your tea.

Simply rinse the teapot with hot water after each use and allow it to air dry thoroughly with the lid off. Avoid using soap or detergents, as the porous nature of the clay will absorb these scents and affect the flavor of future brews.
