frequently asked questions
-
Our mugs are crafted from high-quality, premium materials chosen for both their beauty and functionality. We primarily use artisan ceramics and porcelain, which are renowned for their ability to retain heat, ensuring your Ceylon tea stays at the perfect sipping temperature longer. All our glazes are lead-free and non-toxic, guaranteeing a pure and safe tea experience.
-
The material of your teapot or source (like a gaiwan or kyusu) directly impacts the taste and temperature of your tea. Our ceramic and porcelain sources provide neutral brewing surfaces that don't retain flavours from previous sessions, ensuring the pure, unadulterated taste of your single-origin Ceylon tea shines through. They also offer excellent heat retention for optimal steeping.
-
Yes, the vast majority of our mugs and ceramic sources are both dishwasher and microwave safe for your convenience. We always clearly state any specific care instructions on the individual product pages. However, handwashing is generally recommended to preserve the longevity and finish of the artisan glazes and designs.
-
We offer a carefully selected range of sources to suit different brewing styles. Our collection includes classic ceramic teapots, modern glass infuser pots for watching the leaves unfurl, and traditional sources like gaiwans for those who enjoy a more hands-on, Gong Fu style of brewing. Each is designed to maximise the flavour extraction from our premium loose leaf teas.
-
Absolutely! We have several beautifully coordinated mug and source sets that make perfect gifts or a lovely addition to your own kitchen. These sets are designed to create a harmonious tea experience, both in style and function. You can find them featured in our "Tea Gifts" collection or by filtering for "Sets" on the Mugs & Sources page.
-
Consider your brewing style and aesthetic preference. For everyday use, a sturdy, well-balanced ceramic mug is ideal. If you frequently brew for multiple people, a larger teapot (source) is best. For solo tasting sessions focused on flavour, a small pot or gaiwan offers more control. Feel free to browse our product descriptions, which highlight the best use case for each item.
