This is a great Yixing purple Clay Teapot for brewing Taiwanese oolong or black tea. It is important to understand a quality clay teapot: the lid must snug tightly, The surface of the teapot is very smooth, the pouring might not leak any water from the top, and finally, it should not have any bad chemical smell.
