Bamboo Cha He Tea Holder — With Tea Needle
In the art of gongfu tea and Japanese sado, the cha he — tea holder — is the vessel through which dry tea is first presented to guests before a single leaf enters the teapot. It is a moment of quiet ritual: the color, shape, and fragrance of the dry tea are offered for appreciation, creating a pause of beauty before the brew begins. This bamboo cha he comes with a matching tea needle for precise, hygienic tea handling.
How to Use
- Use the tea needle to transfer dry tea from the caddy into the cha he — avoid touching the gap area to maintain hygiene.
- Present the cha he to guests with both hands: left thumb and four fingers support the sides, right hand supports the bottom.
- Allow guests to appreciate the color, shape, and aroma of the dry tea.
- Transfer the tea leaves into the teapot to begin brewing. The cha he can also be used to gently crush leaves to increase concentration.
