- Check this out:
- Water kettle I mentioned previously is slightly bigger with long spout just like what you saw in the video, pouring techniques are not as fancy though.

Here is a commentary by sevencups on the abovelinked Hangzhou tea house:
http://sevencups.com/news/?p=81
"In many places in China a copper kettle is used to boil water, copper supposedly improving the taste of the tea, but only in Sichuan do they pour directly from the kettle into the gaiwan."
I don't know what tea has he been smoking. China is such a big continent, tea culture originate even before anyone can varify, thousands years before Lu Yu wrote "Cha Jing". How can any one pinpoint a region for originality of pouring water to a gaiwan.
