Frequently Asked Questions

Here are some questions and answers about the traditional Chinese tea set:

This varies depending on the set, but generally, the high-quality ceramic (such as porcelain or Yixing clay), bamboo, and occasional wood or metal for certain tools. Each specific set’s description will provide which materials are included.
A proper Gongfu Cha ceremony includes steps such as warming the teaware, rinsing the tea leaves, brewing the tea in short steepings, and serving the tea in small cups. The focus is on appreciating the aroma, taste, and appearance of the tea, as well as the process itself. Most sets come with some basic instructions, and there are plenty of online guides and videos to help you learn.
Rinse out the teaware with hot water after every use. Avoid using soap (in particular for Yixing clay teapots, as Yixing clay is porous and will absorb the tea’s flavor over time; this is desirable). For ceramic pieces, a mild soap can be used if absolutely necessary (such as when washing pu-erh stains from a fair cup), but care should be taken to ensure that the pieces are rinsed thoroughly afterwards. Dry the pieces completely before putting them away. This will help prevent both mildew and mold.
Yes! The majority of traditional tea sets are designed to be easy to use, even for a complete beginner. While you may need to read up on the details and nuances of the tea ceremony, the basic steps are very simple! With a complete set, you’re guaranteed to have everything you need.
Traditional Chinese set:
Yixing clay: Yixing teapots, made from clay produced in the region of the town of Yixing, China from Yixing clay, (also called zisha ware), are meant for brewing Oolong, Pu-erh, black and green teas, as the Chinese believe the unglazed clay can improve the taste of the tea and over time acquire the flavour of the teas brewed in them.
Ceramic: Ceramic tea sets are best used for any kind of tea, such as white, green or black tea.
Traditional tea sets typically will not include any tea leaves. You’ll be able to decide what teas you love best separately. Some stores may have bundles that come with some selected teas to start you off.
The warranty policies are subject to manufacturers and retailers. Check the product description to find out the warranty policy or contact the customer service.
Store the clean and dry tea set in a secure location away from direct sunlight and extreme temperature changes. A display cabinet or a dedicated storage box is ideal to protect the delicate pieces.

Customer Story: Recreating a Family Tradition

Sarah comes from a family who isn’t from China but do have Chinese ancestry. Growing up in another country outside of China meant that traditions got lost along the way. Sarah wanted to see that her kids were able to gain a sense of Chinese culture. She purchased a traditional 8 piece Chinese tea set and begun to have family tea time over the weekends where her and her kids would practice the tea ceremony. “It’s been a great way to pass my traditions onto my kids and start creating new family memories. The set makes the experience feel authentic and special. It’s become a special family tradition of our own.”

Case Study: Bringing Extra Value to a Boutique Hotel

One boutique hotel landed upon the idea of having traditional tea ceremony experiences for their guests. They were a culture focused hotel and wanted to immerse their guests in different cultural experiences. The hotel created a special tea room that was specifically designed for the purpose of recreating the tea drinking experiences that they had experienced on their trip to China. The hotel had furnished the room with a few of the traditional sets (traditional 14 piece set). Guests staying over at the hotel were able to either book in a guided tea drinking session or freely use the pots for their own enjoyment. By having a ceremonial tea drinking session available for the guests, it added an extra level to the guest’s overall experiences that they’d get at the hotel. It was a successful addition to the boutique hotel, earning them loads of rave reviews from guests and growing the numbers of guests who wanted to stay over and have some cultural immersion. Having the ceremonial tea sets, helped add value both through offering unique experiences to their guests which led to guest satisfaction and a unique selling point that set the boutique hotel apart in a competitive space.
This traditional Chinese tea set offers a connection to a cultural experience that you can share with others, offering more than just the tools, but a chance to connect, slow down and enjoy life with each cup.
