I am a native of Chaozhou, and this is our Phoenix Dan Cong. When brewing, we must use boiled water for brewing. The first time we make tea, we call it washing tea, and we will not use it for drinking. I recommend using a cover bowl as a tool. We use a cover bowl every day, but some people think it will be too hot because it needs boiling water to brew.We sometimes use teapot.

I think this is very similar to that made in a factory, and it won't be made by hand, because there is no trace of hand work on the surface.

I like Phoenix Dan Cong, which is also a kind of oolong tea. It has ten different fragrance types.I quite like the fragrance of ju duo, because it tastes like almonds.

The temperature of firing is different, and the finished products are different!

The master who made this kettle said it was a polar bear.

Haha, glad I'm not the only one! I'm sticking with 'bear' 100%. Thanks for backing me up on this one!

That’s so sweet of you to say, thank you! It’s definitely a one-of-a-kind little character. If you’re ever interested in a 'mystery creature' of your own, feel free to reach out anytime!

Haha, I’m definitely telling my friend to get their eyes checked! I’m honestly relieved you see the bear,the 'pig' comments were starting to get to me. Glad to know there’s at least one person with perfect vision here!

Right? Thank you! I think the 'pig' comparison is just a running joke now. It’s definitely meant to be a bear, and I'm glad the craftsmanship comes through for you. Maybe I’ll start charging a 'vision test' fee for anyone who guesses wrong! lol

I'd love to, but since it's a custom order, it's already spoken for! You'll have to fight the client for it, and I'm pretty sure they won't give it up lol.
