What is a Gong Dao Bei?
In traditional Chinese Gongfu Cha (kung fu tea) ceremony, the Gong Dao Bei (Tea Fairness Pitcher) is an indispensable piece of茶具 (chájù, tea ware). After steeping tea leaves, you pour the full-bodied steeped tea into the Gong Dao Bei first. This step evens out the tea’s strength and aroma, ensuring every guest gets an equally flavorful cup of tea — embodying the traditional Chinese value of fairness and hospitality.
