    Jianzi Tall Foot 150

    , ,

    Professional tea tasting with style

    Although this is a gaiwan developed with the requirements for standard tea tasting, at 150ml ISO capacity at below the lid cover, we have it made with all the proper ergonomic requirements, and in a great looking design. Produced in fine kaolin porcelain and gorgeously finished with a glossy overglaze. A great tool for the professional, the real connoisseur or the novice drinker.

    Each unit contains one gaiwan bowl with a lid. Choice of three colours.

    Standard Taster’s Mug, Small

    ,
    The 150ml standard taster’s mug is a most indispensable tool for traders, teashop owners and serious connoisseurs. Its smaller size lessens considerably unnecessary wastage, especially when tasting for finer, and thereby more expensive, teas. We have this one handmade in Dehua, where the highly acclaimed white porcelain, Blanc de chine originated.

    Moonlight Gaiwan

    , ,

    A demanding connoisseur's choice

    While to many drinkers, the white porcelain gaiwan maybe the standard infusion vessel, some need an instrument to further improve the brewing experience. It should have all the advantages of a good porcelain — a thin, well formed brim for good decantation, a hollow in the lid button for keeping it cool enough for handling, a dome-shape lid for air trap, a rounded belly for minimising surface area to volume ratio… just like the Celeste Green Gaiwan has. However, one may want additionally a thicker, denser wall in the bowl for even better heat retention, a more solid weight for more confidence in handling, yet the same smooth, polished surface as porcelain for easy care. That would make the perfect gaiwan. Such as this Moonlight gaiwan. A double glazed stoneware of a very dense clay, it weighs 46% more than a porcelain gaiwan of its size. It has a thicker wall at the belly, yet the same thin brim that you expect of a good gaiwan. Its capacity is 150ml, just like an infusion mug specified in the international tasting standard ISO 3103.
