Gaiwan Teacup Chinese Gongfu Tea Set High White Porcelain Ceramic Gift Box (douli cup)

I purchased this set for making gong fu tea, and it is fantastic. The porcelain feels high quality and everything arrived quickly, and undamaged. Perfect for a relaxing tea session, great to slow down and enjoy the process, the changing flavors of the tea as the steeps progress. Overall a good set.

This is a very pretty tea set, and seems well made, but still feels delicate in the hand which sometimes (at least for me) can influence the tea drinking experience- it makes me slow down and enjoy the act of drinking a well brewed cup of tea much more so than if I were mindlessly gulping from a large mug.

The first set that I ordered arrived without any particular protective packaging (outside of the cardboard inserts). In consequence, the strain holder arrived broken in three pieces. I quickly requested a replacement, and I eventually got it after some time. The second set arrived with foam wrap around the more delicate items, like the former mentioned strain holder, as well as the gaiwan lid and pitcher. I would like to imagine that this is how they're supposed to be shipped, and my first set was a dud. However, I don't think this might be the case.As for the actual tea set, it's pretty nice. Very personal sized gaiwan, but you can get over that by brewing multiple steeps. The ceramic does feel a little thin, but I don't really see it as a huge issue. I think it's good enough to get started in the gongfu tea tradition, so it has my recommendation.

I needed a daily set for my tea (I chipped my very nice set). This is perfect for a personal tea set or a beginner set. Add some tea towels, and a set of the six gentleman tea tools and your on your way. Impressed with the gaiwan, the water flow is easily controlled with the well fitting lid. Be careful not to pour too much at a time into the tea filter, it might overflow.If your new to Chinese style brewing, want to learn, or just want a simple personal tea set this one is perfect for those uses. Grab it! :)

Love it.

Top Ware & sehr schnelle Lieferung - sehr zu empfehlen - herzlichen Dank

Arrived quick, all pieces well packaged and undamaged, exactly as described, clearly well made and high quality (look at the transparency of the fair cup in attached pic), perfect for gongfu tea, gaiwan fills 3 cups comfortably with some room to avoid burning fingers! Highly recommend.

Malgré un paquet bien protégé, une tasse était ébréché a l intérieur. Un problème de qualité a l expédition, c'est bien dommage. Pour le reste c'est OK, mais j aurais aimé que les parois soient plus épaisses.

Unglaublich gutes Preis Leistungsverhältnis eines wirklich schönen praxistauglichen Teesets für chinesischen Grüntee. Für japanischen Grüntee nimmt man am besten Tonkannen aus Japan, zB Tokoname
