Feature
Zhu Ni (Red Clay) is highly favored for gong fu cha teapots due to its exceptional heat retention properties. This type of clay is porous, allowing the teapot to absorb the aroma and flavors of the tea over time, enhancing the brewing experience. Zhu Ni can help maintain a consistent brewing temperature, essential for extracting the full flavor and aroma of delicate teas like oolong, pu'er, and black tea. The porous nature of red clay also aids in reducing bitterness and astringency in the brewed tea, resulting in a smoother and more balanced flavor profile. Overall, Zhu Ni teapots are excellent for brewing a wide range of teas, particularly those that benefit from precise temperature control and extended infusion times.
