The Tea Vault Gaiwan Set
This particular box has been a long, LONG time in the making. All of the components come from Steph’s personal tea collection, and reflect a huge variety of geographically, culturally, and experientially significant steeps. From rare rock oolongs to an even rarer purple tea (literally one of the rarest in the world, and only a select few plants are harvested from), from delicate white whole leaf to compressed aged pu-erh bricks, there is a magnificent medley of flavors and experiences in this set, suitable for anyone who is curious to taste the world’s teas, or the connoisseur who is looking to deepen their knowledge and broaden their palate. Every main genre of tea is reflected: white, green, oxidized/unoxidized oolongs, black, and pu-erh.
Included in this collection is:
Steeping/tasting notes, detailing many fascinating facts about the teas included, flavors to look for, and more!
A gaiwan - a common tea brewing vessel from the East Asian cultures, especially China, this method of steeping tea allows for the ‘espresso’ experience for tea. Short, small, intense steeps, where successive steeps unfold like chapters of a book, tell the story of the tea in delicious form. This one is a zen white ceramic, perfect for appreciating the nuances of color and liquor of all teas.
