    I love the teapot handle! Makes so much more sense than the curved kind on the side opposite the spout. Much more control without the risk of burning fingers!

    Lovely and informative. Love that you kept the sounds of the ceremony - most videos leave them out and just have music. It's very pleasent to hear the water and such. :)

    There's even a KOREAN Tea Ceremony?! AWESOME! I love learning about ancient Asian cultures and how much many things mean to each culture.

      Kinda. It was reconstructed around the 1980s. A lot of Korean culture had to be reconstructed.

    I love this, it’s very respectful.
    I worked in Korea for awhile, it opened my eyes to the Asian world.
    The people over there are respectful and organized, I loved every moment working there.
    I hope that the North and South can make peace and live in harmony.

    You could hardly ask for anything more! Graceful and economical, no lost motion or water! I doubt that one CC of water was spilled, and that only b/c the teapot spout was a little dribbly. I just came to this from watching a dozen videos about gong fu type preparation, which now seems too busy and messy, too much apparatus. And I like apparatus! I am going to try to be more like this myself. It's a treat to see something so serious and intent on UA-cam.

    How do u do the second steeping, using the same water in the brown teapot and doing the same procedure : cooling cups etc, or just steeping once and pouring it in, this is so beautiful btw, I’d love to know how Koreans drink tea casually at home

    • @HankookTea
      @HankookTea  4 роки тому +2

      Yes, exactly. The tea leaves are sensitive to the temperature of the water, which is why it is cooled down first. If you use water that is too hot, the bitter flavors will develop more and overpower the sweet flavors. The second steeping would be done the same as the first. Depending on how you steep the tea leaves the first couple times, you may be able to get a third or even fourth steeping out of the same leaves.

      At Hankook Tea, we produce several different grades of green teas as well as a range of other teas and tisanes (herbal). We also carry most of the tools necessary for the ceremony on our website - www.hankooktea.com

    can this ceremony be served black tea? if so, do you have to cool down the water?

    • @HankookTea
      @HankookTea  8 років тому +13

      Traditionally, the ceremony is with green tea because black tea is not really produced in Korea (because the tea trees that grow in Korea are "small leaf" type, which is not ideal for making black tea). Generally for black tea, you would not cool down the water.

      @leonardpearlman4017 6 років тому +3

      The tempo seems just right to me. The processes take a little time, if she moved faster there would be a lot of pauses, this seems more like a continuous motion and everything is done just in time. Now I have to watch it again to see if that's actually true! Meanwhile I have a cup of tea here that got cold while I was watching this.

    "The Coreans drink very little tea, nor do they seem much to care for it, though the better classes use it at times. It is owing to this that the cultivation of the tea shrub is so very much neglected in the country, but it grows wild in many parts, and could easily be made to give a very fair crop, both as to quality and quantity,on account of climate and ground favouring its growth. Splendid springs of the purest water are everywhere found, and the Coreans do not perhaps feel the want of tea so much as they are great water drinkers."
    Ernst Jakob Oppert, 'A Forbidden Land: voyages to the Corea' (1880)
