Yixing Terracotta Teapot Pan Hu 潘壶
Features & Benefits
Classic Pan Hu Form (潘壶):
A time-honored Yixing teapot shape, the Pan Hu is admired for its upright profile and compact body, which promotes strong internal circulation—ideal for extracting the layered complexity of high-aroma teas.
Refined Zhu Ni Clay:
Made from fine-grain 朱泥 (red clay), this teapot offers excellent heat conductivity and a lively energy to the brew. Zhu Ni is especially favored for bringing out floral and high-note aromas in teas like Dan Cong oolong, Tie Guan Yin, and young raw Pu-erh.
Balanced Heat Retention:
With a wall thickness rating of 5, this piece delivers controlled heat preservation, making it particularly well-suited for medium-roast oolongs, floral Sheng Pu-erh, and other aromatic teas that benefit from quick yet precise brewing.
Crafted by Peng Zhi Xin:
Handmade by skilled ceramicist 彭志新, known for clean forms and thoughtful proportion. His pieces reflect a commitment to classical aesthetics and modern function—each teapot is both a collector’s item and a performance vessel for serious tea drinkers.
Intimate Gong Fu Size:
The 120 ml capacity is ideal for solo tea sessions or focused tastings, allowing for greater control over steeping times and infusion strength.
