Pouring tea into a glass carafe before serving it in cups is an important step in the Chinese tea ceremony, because it allows you to obtain a liquor with a uniform color and flavor. In fact, the glass carafe is also known as gong dao bei (fairness cup). This carafe is made of borosilicate glass, an excellent material for heat retention, with an elegant wooden band, branded Tea Soul.

What is a Gong Dao Bei

The Gong Dao Bei is simply a pitcher for serving tea so that everyone gets an infusion of equal strength (that’s why it’s called a fairness cup). If you were to serve directly from a teapot or gaiwan, the first cup would have a weaker brew than the last. The Gong Dao Bei allows tea to be filtered from the teapot or gaiwan into this pitcher to uniform the brew so everyone can taste the same tea.
