What is a Gong Dao Bei?
In traditional Chinese gongfu cha (kung fu tea) ceremony, a Gong Dao Bei (tea pitcher) is an essential piece of茶具 (tea equipment). Its core purpose is to hold brewed tea from the teapot and evenly distribute it into individual teacups, ensuring every guest gets tea of the same concentration and flavor for a consistent, fair tasting experience — that’s how it got its name ‘Gong Dao’ (fair justice) in Chinese culture.
