Purple clay is porous, which allows the teapot to absorb the oils and essence of the tea over time. With consistent use, the clay becomes seasoned, subtly enhancing the flavor and aroma of the specific type of tea you brew in it.

It is highly recommended to dedicate one teapot to a single type of tea, such as Pu-erh, Oolong, or Black tea. Because the clay is porous and absorbs flavors, using it for multiple varieties can lead to flavor contamination.

Never use soap or detergents, as the porous clay will absorb the chemicals and ruin your tea's flavor. Simply rinse the pot with hot water after each use and allow it to air dry completely with the lid off.

The 14-hole outlet acts as a built-in filter, preventing tea leaves from pouring into your cup while ensuring a smooth, consistent flow. It is designed to handle the expansion of tea leaves effectively without clogging.

No, this teapot is not suitable for direct heat sources like stovetops or microwaves. It should only be used for brewing tea by pouring hot water into the pot.

The 180ml size is ideal for solo sessions or brewing for two people, while the 250ml size is better suited for serving three to four people. Consider your typical tea ritual size when making your selection.
