Re: Essence of Tea new yixing
There are two 45 ml F1 hongni pots available on the EoT site now...get on it! I just bought two and one of the 75ml heini ones, as well as a 70 ml hong pi long dragon egg. My only regret is not getting one or two of the 110 ml pots when I had a chance...I'd have the 40, 65, 85 and 110 as a set then!

Glad you got one! One left now. Hoping they get more 110ml ones in. I still want one!

Indeed!
The small 65 ml Shui Ping i bought begins already to get nice and shiny, taste is excellent.

Re: Essence of Tea new yixing
David's on a roll with these pots! I've been wanting to get a larger pot for guests, and those big F1's fit the bill, especially for the price. Bought one of the 170ml. Excited to try the clay.
Re: Essence of Tea new yixing
I may have also partaken in this latest round...
And also the earlier 'stealth round' where he posted a bunch of pots but didn't mention it anywhere...

Re: Essence of Tea new yixing
What did you get, Drax? I like the F1 hongni more than modern zhuni for gaoshan. 

Re: Essence of Tea new yixing
In this latest round of pots, I grabbed a 110 mL shui ping and one of the Lu Wei Fang pots (the wide-mouth one -- I do enjoy pots with wide openings!).
Re: Essence of Tea new yixing
Those of you who have received Lu Wei Fang pots, if you could please leave your impressions on here. Build quality I'm sure is nice but more importantly the zini quality and its performance compared to older/modern clay. The clays look nice in the pictures but brewing always reveals true nature
.

Re: Essence of Tea new yixing
Looking good! I'm curious about the interior of the pots. You have pictures?
