pour out.  Especially your costliest Oolong, that $4,000 per 100g Oolong harvested around the Mu Shu Da Hong Pao trees meant for the leadership of China.  We want to get the Rich TASTE OUT from the leaves OPTIMALLY, and not burning nor scalding the leaves, with a fast pour out.  A classic fast move.  Elegant and the Oolong that results, especially if that is your costliest Oolong, your costliest Yan Cha in your collection.  Nothing else replaces this prerequisite for the BEST resultant tea taste.  For one or two pax most astounding results.  We want the maximum amount of tea leaves within the pot, that 100degC hot water in that fills up fast and conveniently, decisive pick of the lid knob and covering it, quick and most effective steep, that dense tea water out.  The most treasured steep of 80ml (120ml - 40ml of space taken up by the expanded tea leaves) of tea water out for one to two persons per steep.  When every steep matters.  The most unique and transcendental tasting, that teaches us the matter of impermanence, and we treasure every steep, every drop that passes through down our palate.  For two to three pax, no compromises here as Craftsman Chen crafted this impressive
