Chadrinkincat Nice pot!! Thank you Teas We Like for such a good buy!!!

Cheers!

Thanks for the approval OCTO!!

Nice picture Chadrinkincat, looking good. Wood fired, stone ground zini should be a bit muting initially but mid-aged sheng should be a very good fit. This pot is not low-fired so it should pick up some nice patina with use.

This pot is definitely going to see plenty of use so I’m not too worried. I’ll add more photos once it starts to show signs of use.

@Chadrinkincat

Looking forward!!!

OCTO, this new avatar pot of yours, i see that it has three nozzles for the spout (not to mention the tasty looking clay). Does it produce three separate jets when pouring? As a stretch goal - can you fill three cups at once with it?

@polezaivsani

It’s a piggy snout reincarnate.... probably abducted by alien invaders in the ancient past... It pours a steady stream of 3 braided into 1.... it fills a cup a lot faster but 3 cups at once will be a stretch!... hahahaha....

Cheers!

I received this new excellent pot

[klepto]

After a late night session of some puerh that was not as expected I tried out my filtered water through an F1 yixing teapot and a regular glass cup. The yixing teapot for the short period of time I had in which was like 30 second made the water soft and round. The glass cup water was sharp, nasty chlorine taste and not tasty at all. What a difference!!

Imagine what it can do when paired with the right kind of tea...

Can I haz your pots and your tea? You would be the perfect person to advise me on which teas go with which pot that you previously owned.

It has worked well with aged and young raw, and ripe puer. I'll probably dedicate this one for aged/semi-aged raw puer.

Great pot, looks good! Reminds me of my Avatar pot, in a way.

What type of clay, how many ML's, where did you acquire it???
