A set of exquisite tea sets with good tea with good color, aroma and taste can be said to complement each other.
Since ancient times, one of the important manifestations of people's attention to the art of tea sets itself is to pay attention to the art of tea sets. Therefore, if you want to drink good tea, you can't do without the corresponding tea sets.
Porcelain tea set
Porcelain has fine soil and high sintering temperature; it is thin and has a crisp sound when knocked. Because the surface of porcelain is smooth and dense, it does not absorb water or odor. In addition, porcelain tea sets transfer heat quickly and do not absorb fragrance, which can fully express the flavor of tea, and the brewed tea is fragrant and delicious.
Because of these characteristics, porcelain tea sets are particularly suitable for brewing clear and refreshing tea.
Suitable for brewing: green tea with tender raw materials, floral black tea, fragrant oolong tea, such as Tieguanyin, new white tea, such as Baihao Yinzhen, etc.
Ceramic tea set
The tea soup flows in and out of the pores on the inner wall of the pottery, reacting with some mineral elements in the clay, and the mellow flavor and changes of the tea will be more prominent.
Zisha tea set
Although Zisha utensils are pottery, they are different from ordinary pottery. The inside and outside of Zisha tea sets are not glazed. Instead, they are made of purple clay, red clay and Tuanshan clay through kneading and firing.
Zisha utensils are made of high-quality purple clay and have a unique double-pore structure. They have strong water absorption and excellent air permeability, and have a certain effect on the color of tea soup.
Zisha utensils are suitable for brewing heavy-flavored teas, especially heavily fermented, heavily roasted teas and old teas.
Suitable for brewing teas: Pu'er old tea, old white tea, black tea, etc.
Glass tea set
Glass is a colored, translucent and airtight mineral with very strong plasticity. The irreplaceable feature of glass tea sets is transparency. Through the glass, you can see the color of the tea soup and the shape of the tea leaves. Whether it is a glass pot, a glass fair cup, or a glass teacup, it is very ornamental.
However, glass teacups are brittle and easy to break, and they transfer heat quickly, have poor heat preservation, and the aroma of tea is easy to dissipate. Therefore, it is best to drink the tea brewed with glassware as soon as possible.
Suitable for brewing tea: green tea, herbal tea, etc.
The above is a summary of the impact of the characteristics of teaware materials on tea. It is not a fixed combination. You can choose the corresponding utensils according to your own preferences.💕
