Pleasant Gaiwan
This is my first gaiwan and it worked perfectly for me being totally new to gongfu style tea brewing
...
. The capacity in the description said it holds 150ml but that pushes a bit too far and 100ml of water is more reasonable in terms of actual brewing amount. It was incredibly comfortable to use even with the boiling water for my puerhs. I also purchased the Taihaku Porcelain Teacup set from here as well and the two cups were perfect for the amount brewed in this gaiwan. Love this gaiwan - highly recommend!

Fell in love
I bought this gaiwan a few years back before I was really into brewing in their particular style. Since
...
then, I've explored my tea palate and found that this little gaiwan is such a fun price of ware to brew with. I love this thing! It's small, and that makes it feel like whatever I'm brewing is even more special, so I sip it more slowly and really relish every flavor. Admittedly, I wasn't to fond at first. Now, I'm absolutely in love!

Nice Gaiwan
This is a workhorse gaiwan. It's very functional, and the size is adequate for every style of tea. If
...
you're a serious tea drinker you may well want a gaiwan in a few sizes. And the 100ml size is probably essential which I think is what the size of this gaiwan is.

Aromatic and flavorful with notes of fresh-cut gardenia, freesia blossoms and tropical fruits
Traditional style Pu'er with a robust, soothing flavor and sweet notes of dark mocha
Named for its brilliant red infusion, this full-bodied, deeply fermented oolong is slow baked to bring out complex layers of cacao, raisins and black cherry.
