Yixing Clay Teapot - Feng Chun

Yixing teapots are intended for puer, black, and oolong teas. They can also be used for green or white teas; however, the heat retention characteristics of Yixing makes the brewing process extremely difficult; and in such cases, the water must be heated to no greater than 85 °C (185 °F), before pouring into the teapot. A famous characteristic of Yixing teapots are their ability to absorb trace amounts of brewed tea flavors and minerals into the teapot with each brewing.

宜兴茶壶专⻔⽤于普洱茶，红茶和乌⻰茶。它们也可以⽤于绿茶或⽩茶 ， 但是宜兴的保温特性使酿造过程极为困难。在这种情况下，在将⽔倒⼊茶壶之前，必须将⽔加热到不⾼于85°C（185°F）。宜兴茶壶的⼀个著名特征是每次煮制时，它们都能将微量的煮茶⼝味和矿物质吸收到茶壶中。随着时间的流逝，这些积聚起来会为每 个宜兴茶壶提供独特的内部涂层，为未来的茶湯增添⻛味和⾊彩。因此，不建议使⽤肥皂清洗宜兴茶壶，⽽应使⽤新鲜蒸馏⽔和空⽓⼲燥。
