In traditional Gongfu tea practice, delicate teas like green and white tea are often brewed in a glass teapot or gaiwan instead of Yixing clay. Because Yixing clay is porous and retains heat, it can over-extract lighter teas and soften their fresh aromas. Glass is neutral and non-absorptive, preserving the tea’s true flavor — and it lets you watch the leaves unfurl and gracefully swirl in the water, adding a beautiful visual dimension to the experience.
