Yixing Zisha Teapot 200cc – Purple Clay – Lotus Leaf Xishi Beauty Tea

If you brew gongfu style, you know the teapot does half the talking. It holds 200cc, which is plenty for solo gongfu sessions.

Made from purple clay, honest and unglazed, exactly as tradition demands. The lotus form keeps the profile distinctive without getting in the way of the pour. No two handmade pots fire exactly alike — expect small, charming variations, which is exactly what you want in a daily brewer. Spout is cut to deliver a clean, unbroken stream, which is exactly what you want in a daily brewer. Look closely and lid fits tightly enough to keep aroma in the pot. Look closely and it is a working pot, not a museum piece — brew in it daily.

Brew something you love in it first; first impressions count. Good clay, honest shape, fair value — the rest is up to your tea. A pot this honest is worth picking up. The pot does not demand attention — it earns it, one steeping at a time.
