What we liked

  • + Xishi is the same classic shape the old pot used, a rounded form often chosen for everyday brewing.
  • + About 270 ml, a bit larger than the old 220 cc, and listed as made from natural Yixing clay.
  • + Includes a rope tying lid to pot and gift wrap; the listing gives seasoning steps for a new pot.

Trade-offs

  • - The clay is red-brown qingshuini rather than the purple zi ni clay of the old pot.
  • - Budget-priced and from a small brand, so no named artisan or authenticity certificate is listed.
