The Lotus Leaf or Gooseneck spout has been one of the features we have come to love with Zhang's pots, but these, these take it one step further.
Not only is the spout on these eccentric and intriguing but also the handles have been shaped and considered beyond most.
If you are on the fence about picking a lid up from the side vs by the lid button... These pots are perfect for showing you just how satisfying picking them up from the side can be.
Finally, the icing on the cake with these is the balanced and seamless lids that elegantly come together where they meet the body, oh, and they lose virtually no tea when you put the lid on.
If this is your first gongfu pot we recommend going with the 2 person pot or checking out Kemin's apprentice's pots great starters for getting into Chaozhou pots.
Derek's Take: I can't get over the beautiful shape of this pot and its immaculate silky texture, the lid is a little heavy for my liking, but it doesn't fall out unexpectedly when pouring.
