One, what tea is suitable for a purple clay pot?

Most teas are suitable for a purple clay pot. For example, Tieguanyin, Dongding Oolong, Pu'er tea, Dancong, etc. Of course, different specifications of purple clay pots have different characteristics, so different types of purple clay pots are suitable for different teas, let's discuss this in detail below.

Two, what tea is best brewed with a purple clay pot?

1. For purple clay pots, materials with high crystallinity such as zhuni are suitable for brewing oolong, Tieguanyin, Dancong, and other teas.

2. Flat and squat purple clay pots with a capacity of 200ml or less are suitable for drinking Tieguanyin, as the pot can reach high temperatures instantly, which meets the requirements for brewing Tieguanyin (such as Xubian, Huan, Fanggan, etc.).

3. Pu'er tea and Black Tea can be brewed well using taller-shaped pots around 250ml (such as Shiliang, Dezhong).

4. Wide-mouthed purple clay pots around 250ml are a good choice for brewing green tea (such as Fanggu, Jinglan, Zhuchu, Xubian, etc.).

Three, what tea is suitable for a square purple clay pot?

A square purple clay pot is ideal for brewing ripe Pu'er tea, allowing its aged flavor to come out fully, making it very suitable.

Four, what tea is suitable for a flat purple clay pot?

A flat purple clay pot is suitable for brewing strip-shaped Wuyi tea. For example, a duan clay purple clay pot used to brew Wuyi tea that has been roasted, this pot always manages to mask the dryness from the roasting process and fully express the tea's character.

Purple clay pots made into flat shapes have a lower production rate. This flatter-bodied shape provides excellent stability, allowing strip-shaped tea leaves to settle calmly inside the pot and release their full aroma.

When water is poured, due to the shorter walls of the flat pot, the flow naturally slows down, plus the narrow space inside the pot allows the tea leaves to gently steep in the water, releasing their essence gradually. The compact space of the flat pot perfectly complements the rock essence of Wuyi tea.

Five, what tea is suitable for a round purple clay pot?

Oolong Tea leaves are rolled into ball shapes, and a round pot provides ample space for the semi-ball-shaped leaves to fully unfurl. If you enjoy drinking oolong tea, buying a round purple clay pot is most practical, because: after water is added to a round purple clay pot, the circular walls allow the water to swirl within the pot, more evenly combining water and tea leaves, aiding in the development of the tea's flavor.

When using a round purple clay pot to brew oolong tea, you can further consider the material used for the pot, as the type of material used in the same round pot can also affect the tea-brewing effect.

Using original purple clay to make a pot is generally the basic requirement for buyers, but which type of clay offers the best tea-brewing performance? Zhuni? Duan clay?

Zhuni has the best conductivity, but it may not necessarily best represent the aroma of high mountain oolong tea! It's important that you personally brew tea to find the right match between tea and pot, understand the relationship between clay type and tea-brewing performance, and return to the fundamental principle of choosing a pot based on the tea.
