What is Gong Dao Bei?
In traditional Chinese Gongfu Cha tea ceremony, the Gong Dao Bei (translated as “justice cup” or tea pitcher) is an essential piece of tea ware. After steeping tea leaves in a teapot, you pour the finished tea into your Gong Dao Bei first, which equalizes the tea’s concentration and lets any loose tea leaves settle at the bottom before you pour into individual teacups. This ensures every guest gets a perfectly balanced cup of tea, matching the traditional principle of fairness that gives this tea pitcher its name.
