Geyao Zen Tea Set

Understanding Gongfu Tea

Gongfu tea, also known as Gongfu cha, is a distinctive method of brewing and enjoying tea within Chinese tea culture, particularly cherished in Fujian and Guangdong provinces in southern China.

The origins of Gongfu tea can be traced back to the Song Dynasty, where a more refined tea brewing technique was already in practice. During the Ming Dynasty, these techniques evolved further, introducing more intricate methods of tea preparation. By the Qing Dynasty, Gongfu tea had matured and gained popularity among literati and scholars in Fujian and Guangdong.

Gongfu tea places emphasis on the meticulous details of tea brewing, including the selection of tea leaves, the process of rinsing the tea, brewing it, and pouring it into small cups to fully appreciate the tea's aroma and flavor. It often involves multiple infusions to fully extract and enjoy the tea's nuances.

A complete Gongfu tea set typically includes essentials such as a tea caddy, tea holder, teapot, tea pitcher, fragrance cups, tea cups, tea tray, tea tongs, tea towels, and tea strainer.

Over time, Gongfu tea has transcended its origins in southern China to become a cherished aspect of international tea culture. Today, it is not only a method of tea preparation but also a cultural tradition and an artistic expression. Gongfu tea showcases a long-standing history, serving as both a skillful way to enjoy tea and a reflection of Chinese appreciation for quality of life and aesthetic beauty.
