Preserve Tea Aroma The purple clay pot has a special pore structure, which endows it with excellent air permeability. This allows the tea leaves to breathe fully during the brewing process. Meanwhile, it can retain the aroma of the tea leaves effectively, making the tea fragrance more intense and long - lasting. Even after pouring out the tea leaves, the purple clay pot can still retain the tea aroma for a long time, as the saying goes, "tea won't turn sour overnight".
Enhance Taste The purple clay pot can adsorb impurities and strange odors in the tea soup, making the taste of the tea soup more mellow and smooth. Moreover, it can adjust the acidity and alkalinity of the tea soup, presenting a more suitable taste and better showcasing the charm of the tea.
Maintain Water Temperature The purple clay pot has relatively slow heat conductivity. Compared with tea sets made of other materials, it can maintain the water temperature better. This enables the tea leaves to release their nutrients and aroma fully at an appropriate temperature, which is beneficial for brewing tea. Especially for some teas that require high - temperature brewing, such as oolong tea, the purple clay pot can bring out the quality of the tea better.
Beneficial to Health Purple clay pots are generally made of natural purple clay, which is rich in various minerals and trace elements beneficial to the human body, such as iron, zinc, and selenium. During the tea - brewing process, these minerals and trace elements will dissolve slightly in the tea soup and be absorbed by the human body, which is beneficial to health.
What is engraved on the body of the pot is:In the late Eastern Han Dynasty, the world was in turmoil and heroes abounded. Cao Cao, an outstanding military strategist and statesman, demonstrated his resourcefulness and courage. He was also a man of great literary talent. After triumphing in the northern expedition against the Wuhuan tribe, Cao Cao climbed Jieshi Mountain. The magnificent sea view inspired him to write Guan Cang Hai. Lines like "Eastward I come to Jieshi, to view the boundless sea" show his boldness, while "The sun and the moon seem to rise and set within it; the stars and the Milky Way seem to shine and twinkle from it" reveal his broad - mindedness and ambition to unify the country. With his military and literary talents, Cao Cao laid the foundation for the Cao Wei regime and left an indelible mark in history.
