What is a Gong Dao Bei?
In traditional Chinese Gongfu Tea ceremony, the Gong Dao Bei (Fairness Pitcher) is an essential tool that brings balance and harmony to your tea experience. After brewing tea leaves in a gaiwan or teapot, you pour the finished tea into this pitcher to equalize the strength and flavor before serving it into individual teacups. Every guest gets the same perfect-tasting cup, which embodies the Chinese cultural value of fairness and equality.
