Teaware
The typical Taiwanese family owns at least one set of teaware at home. Many people collect teapots as a hobby, and most families in Taiwan have Yixing clay teapots at home. Teapots are used to brew teas intensively so that the surface of the teapot becomes "bright". This process is called "raising the teapot", which enhances the beauty of the clay teapot. Tea stores are virtually everywhere in Taiwan. In big cities like Taipei one can easily find tea for sale on nearly every city block as well as historic tea houses such as the Wistaria Tea House.
