As a Kung Fu practitioner, I can understand the level of time commitment it would take to craft with such expertise. At first I was quite skeptical on whether this pot would enhance my tea experience. I have never used a Yixing clay pot before. Then I took my first sip. Oh yeah, forever a fan of this. Not only was the aroma heightened but the taste had a new dimension. I’m hooked. Every time I make a new batch I smile with delight on the taste, the experience, the feel, and my admiration of the skill level to craft such an item. No regrets here. In fact, I’d like to see if my class would chip in as a present to our Shaolin Grandmaster one day for all that he has taught us and the rest of the western hemisphere. I will be back for another purchase one day.
I ordered the purple clay pot from realzisha, and I'm happy to see that even in Kentucky I can get a genuine piece. A foreigner like me is surprised at how small it is, but I appreciate the rough and smooth texture and am currently drinking my favorite tea from Yunnan out of this lovely tea pot.
Two perfect cups!
I own 5 pots now by realzisha. I can only attest to their honesty, clays en craftsmanship. This is no exception. The pot is very, very well balanced when pouring tea. The lid doesn’t leak and fits perfectly. It’s an artpiece on its own. I tried it with snow mountain oolong and it tastes great. It will definitely not be my last pot I purchase from them. I recommend this artist and realzisha whole heartedly! It came beautiful wrapped to the Netherlands!
The clay is gorgeous, this is my first Zhuni. It's so smooth! I use it exclusively for roasted oolong and I love it. The teapot is a beautiful presence on the table, it's wonderful to hold and pour. The lid is perfect fit, a testament to the skill and care in making this pot. My deepest gratitude to Senior Craftsman Shi Yun and everyone at RealZisha. Thank you for being.
This teapot is a joy to behold. I waited to write this review because I wanted to let it get fully seasoned and it did not disappoint. This teapot feels great in the hand: the handle is great to hold and perfectly positioned to brace the lid as you pour the last few drops of tea. And the lid is a perfect fit! Absolutely no movement at all. The pot is well-balanced and fun to pour: the spout is pointed up and at an angle so the tea makes a beautiful arc as it flows out. The form is beautiful and makes for an elegant presence on the tea table. This is my first experience of huang jiang po ni clay and I wondered if it would mute the flavor more than I wanted it to. I had no reason to fear, I use this pot exclusively for young sheng pu-erh and it comes out full-flavored, not too sharp or bitter. Thank you Chen Hua Jun and everyone at RealZisha for making this possible. It brings me joy every day.
Beautiful round belly.
An incredible pot, beautiful to look at and a joy to use. I feel so lucky to have found this wonderful business. I’ve already bought two pots and will buy more in the years to come!

I love my new teapot! The craftsmanship is amazing—I’m very impressed with the quality. I’ll definitely be back for more.
Thank you!
Perfect Zhuni teapot. Exceed my high expectation. Craftsmanship is super high on this one. I will purchase more in the future. Thank you Realzisha!
Highest quality teapot I have. Smooth and fast pour
An excellent little pot. Both the clay and the construction of this teapot are of the highest quality. The form is well executed and very pleasing to look at. The pot is comfortable in the hand to hold. It is very light with a finely done thin wall. The lid fit is absolutely perfect and airtight when the vent hole is covered. The pour is smooth and quick. Teas brew fast, strong, and intensely aromatic in the Zhu Ni clay. From my use so far it seems particularly well suited to teas with a floral profile such as Dan Cong. Overall, I couldn't be happier with my purchase and will definitely shop with Real Zisha again.
Again.. I’m so overwhelmed by the skill of the artisan. Lid fits tight, pour is strong and broad and fast. The clay is fantastic. It softens, but keeps the fresh notes of the tea. I own quite some Yixing by now, none of them master the skill or the effects of the clay as good as the 4 pots I bought here. Packaging is second to none. You can buy with full confidence. I can only recommend.
sorry, i put up the wrong photo with this review and i can't seem to delete it. The photo elongs to another great pot i bought from them, the Hong Jiang po ni. sorry about that.
i really love the xisha form. It's one of my favourites. The pour is fast and full and doesn't get clogged by tea leaves. The form is evenly round, the bottom is sooo beautiful made. The lid fits perfectly and the sending ( to the Netherlands) was very fast and very good packaged against handled wildly by post.
I tried Tie Guan Yin in it and it made the teasoup round, full without dulling the high notes too much. I love this clay! I have 2 more pots coming in today from Realzisha. I think that gives away how much i like and trust this company.
i received the pot yesterday and after opening te pot for use, i tried Tie Gyan Yin oolong in it. It transformed the tea beautifully, in a soft , full and round teasoup. The lid fits excellent and no spilling! The pour is full and fast. The pot is so beautifully made i am sooo very happy with it. I can only recommend whole heartilly this company and its artisans. Friendly, honest, using very good clay, very good packaging and fast sending. Buy with confidence. ( i bought 4 pots already of them ;-) ).
Such a beautiful teapot!
Shipping ist extremely fast and the customer service ist amazing.
Can't recommend this shop enough.
Absolutely beautiful pot, it will be a joy to use. Packaging was excellent and it arrived safe and sound. I’m very impressed with the artisans at REALZISHA and can’t wait to sit down with my sister and niece for a tea session with this work of art.
i received this teapot only just this morning and already it’s my new favorite. thank you!!
This is truly a piece of art and the craftsman is truly skilled and talented, you could see and feel the hardwork that was put in delivering this incredible teapot.
Thank you
