Minglu Kettle (Chinese Tea Set) is crafted using traditional hand-throwing techniques, resulting in a warm and smooth feel, a delicate body, and a smooth surface. It offers a comfortable grip and possesses both practical and aesthetic value, as well as collectible appeal. With a capacity of approximately 110 ml, it's a suitable size for various teas, including green tea, black tea, oolong tea, and Pu-erh tea. The spout is smooth and delicate like jade, ensuring an even pour with the tea flowing smoothly without leaving any residue. A unique feature is that during firing in the kiln, various coloring elements in the kiln undergo slight oxidation-reduction reactions with the clay, giving the teapot its distinctive color. Please note: This tea set is fragile; handle with care and store in a cool, dry place to maintain its condition. For any questions, comments, or suggestions, please contact us at dofo@dofotea.com or call +86 18927110833.

Dofo Tea's Philosophy
Here’s our suggested brewing method—you can adjust the tea amount, water volume, temperature, and steeping time to suit your personal taste. For the best experience, we recommend using purified water rather than tap or mineral water. Beginners can start with a regular or simplified brewing method, and if you’re interested in exploring our traditional Gongfu brewing technique, feel free to contact our customer service to book a one-on-one online brewing session.
