- Опубликовано: 29 окт 2021
- If you are looking for a pot that turns every tea into an easy-drinking session then look no further than this Golden Duanni Zisha from Yixing. I am amazed at how sweet, soft and thick every tea becomes - it literally changes everything that you put in from Japanese Greens to Blacks and PuErh.

I have a Duanni dedicated to aged white teas
Think we need a masterclass discussing the types of Duanni!
I purchased it…so excited to add it to my collection. Thank you for your in-depth review videos. I have purchased my ENTIRE tea collection of pots, cups, trays and teas from you over the past 3 years when I became a tea head …due to ALL your educational videos. I hope you never stop producing. Thank you. BTW…I really miss Celine, please tell hello.
america syndrome
Another Saturday tea sesh with the man!
Empress Oolong is actually my favourite oolong tea, I am excited to taste the new batch.
Look forward to trying one.
I was looking at this pot earlier, but its a little too big for me at 160ml.
I did get my order with my little 70ml pot I got from you guys. Thanks Mei Leaf team!!
it’s quarter past midnight and i am happy to see don teadrunk and talk about his experience considering these clays🙃
Also starting to fear for the teacups around 22:33. 😳😅
Definitively need to have one. Please restock a few!
This golden Duanni pot also charge the camera battery, very good!
Lol
That is a very impressive bowl
Really interesting pot. I feel the same way about the porosity/sweetening/easy seasoning. The thing is because it's so porous, wouldn't it turn out to be a messy seasoning to brew all types of tea? It's something to look into if selected as an all-star.
Finally a Duanni Pot^^
Just bought the connections pot. Flavor transformation seems to be what I am looking for.
Uh oh. Looks I have to make room on my teapot shelf 😂 This might be a great pot to use as an intro to most tea types for friends that don't drink tea regularly.
Omg I commented before the end of the video 🤣 you said exactly that haha
I am eagerly waiting for the restock. I am mad at myself for not grabbing it when I had the chance😭
I recently discovered these Mei Leaf RUclips Videos and I am hooked. I ordered several Tasters right away and I am very exited for them to arrive - mostly Oolongs. Until now I have mostly ordered teas from Damman freres, Palais des Thes as well as sunday Natural. I am by no means an expert, but I preferred the teas from Sunday natural - also because they give so much detailed information about the sourcing and taste as well as offering test results for pesticides and radiation (I like their kabusecha). The other two shops offer only very minimal information and I mostly ordered a couple of scented teas from them (scented oolong from damman and rooibos from PDT)- I did not really appreciate their natural teas. But, as already mentioned, I am just starting my tea journey and I love all the in depth information don offers in his videos - I never want to buy artificially scented teas again :-) would love to know some of your expert opinions of the tea shops I mentioned.
Very cool, but would like to see a fully handmade one in the mei leaf collection ;))
btw, any update on that Jianshui pot you were testing out?
Coming in about a month
8:21 😄 the „Wonder Pot“ … and it probably is. I have a pot made from lüni that seems to be the cousin of your golden duanni. Only I feel, instead of „punching a hole through“ the flavour notes you mentioned, it punches the spikier flavours of any tea into a sweet, soft dumpling. 😁 There’s so far only one tea type which I’ve found will absolutely not agree with my lüni pot, and that is very pure and fresh sheng. It’s as if the two kinds of sweetness - the pot’s and the tea’s - were at war with each other. Also, I’ve not yet dared to try it with teas that are too dissimilar or which stick out a lot, like shu puerh, because the pot definitely hands on some residue of one session to the next. - Not to forget: I also found your remarks on the transparency of the clay’s minerals and its impact on yan cha very instructive. Thanks for another lucid mini tutorial there. Btw, why have you been looking at the lid around 14:22 before you poured?
Any word on when you guys are going to get more Duanni tea pots in? I'm dying to get myself a pot!
Any chance for the temperature-retention data to be released? Would be fun to fit some simple models:)
This is a magic ! Bling Rock Kingpin ......
Don- you should do some before/after ph tests! Simple paper tests maybe? My guess is the clays move the ph to a slightly higher (less acidic) level.
The clay will absorb salts and minerals in general, softening the water. I don't think it will change the pH much, if at all.
I've been trying to convert regular sheng pu drinkers to use Jiangponi. It does work like magic, I used to think that Zhuni or Zini will preserve the high notes while porous clays are too muting. Turns out that reality is different from so-called "theory". Once well seasoned, Jiangponi does not mute good sheng. On the other hand, Zhuni and Zini can overcook or steam the leaf and result in burned taste, which covers over those delicate notes.
Are the mineral properties going to last over time, or mellow out based on the water we put through the pot?
So what’s the best general purpose teapot for primarily oolong and puer.
I had no idea different clays made things taste different, I collected some clay from my property last week so my amateur potter friend can try and make one of these just for fun, wonder what Missouri grey clay will make it taste like lol
sounds like it would be interesting with an aged white for a super luxurious tea
Hi don, I saw a recommendation to cook/leave rice in a pot for the first time of use. But I was thinking maybe leaving fragrant rice to season a pot between uses? I'm new to tea brewing, but really enjoy your enthusiasm and it's helped my feel inspired about all things fine tea. Not sure if rice is a good idea to season though.. what do you think?
That’s more for the clay kettles. It increases durability from what I read
That is bs
Would be really lovely to see a column for Zhuni Zisha too. Sometimes I wonder if it’s similar to the Chaozhou Zhuni.
Zhuni is sort of similar to Nixing in my experience
@@MeiLeaf Thanks!
I'm surprised you haven't done a comparison with Zhuni clay
Taste the mega "kitchen sink" all tea type mix for the Halloween trickery
WANT! 😁
LOL
22:11 Don says he "thinks this is a very porous pot" and then the camera switches and you physically watch a dribble of tea soak right in and vanish completely.
It's probably just evaporating
What happens if a clean tea (as white or green) be brewed in this kind of clay tea pot? Ever I had heard about clean teas can't be brewed in clay tea pot.
It’s personal I love my white and green in porcelain but my partner who hates tea liked the white tea more brewed in my duanni teapot. I feel the pot tastes gentler and more round for me it depends on my mood and which white tea I am brewing. But I’m also a beginner! Still need to try a green but I will need another pot then 🙈
have you ever heard of or used a Ying Jing Tea pot?
Is it me or did anybody else think that Don looks really tea high 🤣. I wish I was him lol
Wasted! That was a hard video to film after all of that tea!
My mom is getting the 'Connections' Duanni pot for me as a Christmas gift after I broke my favorite/first yixing pot a few months ago.
This video has me so excited to explore this clay🤍
Will it be back?
I'd like to see a Duanni Junde pot :P
The pot is already sold out. Is there a chance to get one in the near future please?
We might have 1 or 2 remaining but wanted to send out all orders and then confirm so please make sure to click the notification button on the website. We are already in discussion with the Potter about making more for us.
Already out of stock? woah
It's would be useful to add a link to the 10:28 chart.
On the topic of seasoning the pot. Do you think it´s possible to use the Nixing Xishi Clay Pot to different kinds of tea instead of a single one?
Great video as always!
Absolutely, it is my all star.
But, does it broible?
Don I love it when you talk about clay. In your November 2018 clay pot video (one of my favorites) you said that Duanni is good for black tea. Ive waited and waited for you to carry one. I was breathless when you introduced this pot and bought it immediately. But your graph in this video seems like its not so suitable for black tea. Can you elaborate? Im not trolling. Ive already purchased this pot from Mei Leaf so if its not that suitable for black ill use it for something else.
There are couple of types of Duanni and I also read that some of Duanni are perfect for Black - the other for aged teas (also white)
The Duanni which I use for Black is not a Huang Jin (Golden) Duanni and is less porous. This pot works really well for Black tea from our experience - it softens and sweetens while reducing the woodiness. It really depends on if you want that experience or if you want a sharper tasting tea.
Do a steamsea's video Don
Lol. These charts look useful, but WHERE’S THE KEY? What do the colors mean?? Other than that, really helpful video. Thanks, as always.
Edit: Okay, watching some earlier videos, now I mostly understand what the colors are signifying on this chart. The red yellow mix is still a bit mystifying though.
Damn. Looks like I'm too late. Already sold out.
i started my tea journey....three weeks ago....totally immersed in it...i now have three Yixing Tea Pots......my third tea pot....came yesterday. a Duanni Yixing yellow tea pot....a 200 ml....it looks like Aladdins Magical lamp.....it acts like Aladdins magical lamp....its now my favorite.....i am NOW.....

A (not-so) subtle tribute to Stefon? ;)
