Feelings are brewed with water

"Please, ladies of the tea, light up for this gentleman of tea wares." That's right! In the world of tea, tea leaves and tea wares also need to pair up to create a wonderful effect. Now, let's take a look at the "Tea World's If You Are the One."

As the ancients said: "Tea is infused by water, and water is contained by vessels." This saying underscores the importance of tea wares in tea drinking. Good tea, good water, and a good tea-drinking environment form the backdrop for tea tasting. If you also have good tea wares, the entire process can be considered truly perfect.

When choosing tea wares, both color and texture should align with the characteristics of the tea leaves, with the principle of maximizing the expression of tea quality. Is there a basic matching principle for which tea goes with which tea ware?

Below, we recommend different tea wares for different types of tea.

1. Green Tea:

Choose transparent, pattern-free glass cups or white porcelain, celadon, or blue-and-white porcelain lidless cups. Patternless glass cups are the best choice, as they allow better appreciation of the shape and color of green tea.

2. Pu'er Tea:

Choose purple clay pots, white porcelain cups, or infuser mugs.

3. Scented Tea:

Choose celadon, blue-and-white porcelain, or famille rose porcelain teapots, lidded bowls, or lidded cups. Scented tea requires steeping with the lid on to concentrate the aroma, so the fragrance bursts forth when the lid is lifted, best showcasing the tea's quality.

4. White Tea:

Choose white porcelain pots and cups, or black-glazed tea wares with a strong color contrast on the inner wall to set off the white down of the tea.

5. Black Tea:

Choose purple clay tea wares with white-glazed inner walls, or white porcelain, red-glazed porcelain teapots, lidded bowls, or lidded cups, which better highlight the agate-like color of black tea.

6. Oolong Tea:

Choose white porcelain teapots, lidded bowls, or lidded cups, or purple clay tea wares. They complement the tea color and concentrate the aroma.

Just like love requires two people to sense each other's chemistry, highly compatible tea leaves and tea wares can efficiently unleash the energy and flavor of "love." Well, it's time to play matchmaker for your tea leaves and tea wares!
