It isn't too uncommon to see an older gentleman in his home drinking straight from a pot like this.

Creepy old man in the park is more like it...

I have seen this method once in a movie playing during the Qing dynasty, but I doubt it is more than sort of grandpa(again) style brewing. Not sure how historically accurate it is.

@S_B, @Bok

I'm late to the party, but it's definitely not a myth. Here's a screenshot from Xie Jin's 1965 classic 舞台姐妹/ "Two Stage Sisters" (the story takes place in the ROC)



Seen it elsewhere too, but I can't recall in which movies..

Yes! Awesome find! I’ve seen it in a contemporary movie, playing in the Qing dynasty. Same here can’t recall the name...
