What is a Gong Dao Bei?
In traditional Chinese Gongfu tea ceremony, the Gong Dao Bei (Justice Bowl / Tea Pitcher) is an essential tea tool. After steeping tea leaves in a teapot, all brewed tea is poured into this pitcher before being divided into individual teacups. This practice ensures every cup gets the same smooth, consistent flavor, honoring the spirit of fairness and shared enjoyment that defines Chinese tea culture.
