There are many reasons why tea tastes better from a teapot. One of the most important reasons is that tea has time to release its flavors when it's brewed in a teapot. When tea is brewed in a teacup, the hot water quickly boils and scalds the leaves, which prevents the tea from releasing its full flavor. By contrast, when tea is brewed in a teapot, the hot water slowly flows over the leaves, which allows them to release their flavors fully. Additionally, teapots often have larger spouts than teacups, which allow for more airflow and help to cool the tea down more quickly. This also helps to prevent the Tea from becoming too bitter. Finally, many people believe that the shape of a teapot helps to distribute the flavor of the tea more evenly, resulting in a better tasting cup of tea.
