How to Use a Gaiwan, Part 1: What is a Gaiwan?

I now know I need a gaiwan. I have been making greens in the Yixing that were not as good as the greens brewed in the basket western style. Thanks again David. My learning continues....

I love your whole collection of tea service ! like the ones on my wish list. Oh yeah the clay tea pot needs to be seasoned properly before use. Yes, about what he says about the clay tea pot, I recall reading that.

@Onexpresso Yes indeed. I am working on a video all about yixing clay teapots to take the mystery out of seasoning the pots properly. I hope to have that one up soon.

Ah, so giving a clay tea set to someone who's just starting out in their tea drinking would be a bad idea, sense they wouldn't get the full flavor of the new tea they are trying.

Thanks
