Handmade Chinese Gongfu Ceramic Teapot For One (Pale Mustard) - Small (175ml - 5.92 oz) - Uniquely Designed by Bamboo Mist Tea - Perfect Gift for Tea Lovers - Cute Single Person Size

Nice gongfu teapot. Inside is mostly unglazed (in mine there is a charming little splotch of glaze on the bottom), but the underside of the lid is glazed, interesting choice. I prefer unglazed, but this still conducts aromas nicely. I'm using it for chinese black teas and puerhs because it holds heat well. The body and lid actually can become too hot to touch, but the handle and teapot knob remain cool and usable. The size is just right and the shape is adorable. Filter holes are flat with the wall of the teapot, and medium small, so only broken leaf bits will make it through. The pour could be better; it wants to drip if you're not careful. And, when full, tea finds the way out around the lid to be of less resistance than through the tiny spout. One feature I appreciate in this (or any good teapot) is that you can stop the flow pretty much completely by placing a finger over the airhole. For the price I'm quite pleased.

I love this little gongfu teapot. The spout and the leaf filter holes make for a great angle for pouring so I don’t need a strainer which breaks the viscosity.The ceramic has good heat retention and the size and material has made it my new favorite for about 7-8 grams of raw puerh. I use a small gong dau bei as the pot holds more than it looks like — enough for three shallow tea cups. It pours off, after water absorption by the tea leaves, about 1/3rd cup of tea.Pay attention to the size indicated in the description when you order so you don’t purchase it expecting a western style brewing teapot and end up disappointed and giving a review based on expectations for the wrong type of tea pot.

Like others have said " it's cute" but, that's not why I bought it. I bought it to brew tea. I was aware of it's small size and am very familiar with why it is that small. Gong fu tea brewing requires a small size pot because you will be re brewing the same tea leaves several times. My complaint about the pot is its inability to pour in a reasonable amount of time. This extra time to pour means that the tea is over steeped.

It looks so small, but it holds tea for two Jianzhan. :) I did not fall in love at the first sight, but I like it better as I use it more. I use it for oolong tea with big leaves, as I noticed small tea leaves could easily get stuck at the filter and cause dripping.

Wonderful small Gongfu teapot!...Beautiful shape and well designed handle and lid make one handed pouring easy without burning your fingers! Unlike the Yixing clay gongfu pots, since it is ceramic and does not absorb flavors with repeated infusions, this teapot can be used for green and white teas as well as Wulong and Pu'er teas...This cute little teapot may become my favorite for gongfu tea time!

The pot is well made, has a decent pour, and nice aesthetic. I am more than happy. The inside appears to be unglazed so I will probably dedicate it to one type of tea.

I like to brew pu-er tea and it's perfect for doing so. I like that there is a filter inside the pot. The pot does get super hot, so the handle is wonderful.

Perfect size for a single small cup of green tea...second brew while you drink the first. Very small, no need for strainer as the spout is so tiny. So cute! Great for office.
