I'm very happy to have gotten this gaiwan as a free addition to my order. I'd be happy with it even if I paid ~ $6 to have it. Functionally, it is perfect, providing a tight aperture if you need it; the lid fits in the saucer just right. While the gaiwan is listed as 90 ml, I think it is smaller due to shrinking in the kiln at around 60-70 ml. However, this is a plus for me as I want a smaller gaiwan for those teas I buy little of (like Competition Grade TGY). I think it works well as a starter gaiwan as a relatively green user like me handles it easily.

As usual an excellent product from Yunnan Sourcing. For my taste it's something in the middle of green and red tea. Definately worth to try

This is a perfect gaiwan for solo (or a light session with a friend) brewing! Perfect size for everyday use. The porcelain is thick enough that I am not scared it will break but also very light which makes it extremely easy to use.

Nice freebie to have one-person brew. Relatively thick, so would keep temperature better. Small plate, so you can fit it on a small desk better (maybe a bit harder to grab, but works for me).

Nice one.
