Above all, the clay was discovered in the early 1990s while building a road between HuangLong Mountain and QingLong Mountain in Yixing. Notably, while digging to lower slope of the road, workers discovered Zisha ore which has the naturally-occurring mixture of three kinds of Zisha: Hong Ni (red clay), Zi Ni (purple clay) and Duan Ni. After firing, the Jiang Po Ni shows in the mixture colour of red-purple/brown from Hong Ni and Zi Ni with the small gold particles of Duan Ni. On the palate, another important characteristic of Jiang Po Ni is that the clay is relatively more porous than other kind of Zisha which make the pot more breathable. What's more, the pot is almost ideal to steep any teas especially for any roasted oolongs such as Wu Yi Rock Tea, Phoenix Dan Cong, Time-honoured Tie Guan Yin, Puer teas and Red teas. On the palate, only one in stock, so the pot photographed is the pot you will receive. Above all, please Note: We have carefully photographed this item as best as possible – please be aware that different device screens can render colours and subtle tones slightly differently. As a result, preparation Before Use Yixing Teapots should be prepared before using the first time. This is called "opening the pot". As a result, it removes the dust/sand from firing the teapot. Notably, we recommend rinsing the teapot under warm water two or three times, then wipe gently inside and outside of the pot with a new non-scratch sponge scourer to remove sediment trapped in the unglazed clay. On the palate, then, filling the teapot with boiling water, wait for 10 minutes, empty the pot; repeat one more time, the new Yixing teapot is ready for use. Above all, daily cleaning and seasoning Empty the leaves after each use, rinse with boiling water, drain, wipe water away with clean soft cloth, and then lid off, place the body upside, let it air dry for one or two days. As a result, do not ever use any detergent or soap than water to clean the pot. As a result, do not let the pot come into contact with other strong smell such as cooking fume, cigarette smoke, perfume.
