If only one type is used, eventually the user need only add hot water. Ahn, however, stuffs his teapots with leaves. The result is taste overload, a potent, boiling hot tea-bomb.

They sit quietly while he splashes tea over the wood, the other teapots and the cups, and shoves in another scoop of crisp, dry leaves.
