The so-called cover bowl tea, the tea set as a whole is divided into three parts: tea cover, tea bowl, tea saucer, both the function of the teapot, but also the use of the tea bowl. The tea lid can not only cover the dust and maintain the temperature of the tea, but also adjust the solubility of the tea leaves through the opening and closing of the tea cover, that is, the thickness and lightness of the tea. For example, dry mouth, immediately want to drink tea, just use the tea cover on the water surface scraped a few times, you can drink, the same can let you drink steaming, fragrant cover bowl tea; if you want to sit down and slowly taste the true meaning of tea, you can cover the tea cover, slightly exposed a little slit, sip carefully, so as not to enter the tea, you can enjoy the slow entrance, refreshing tea, refreshing and elegant!
The lid bowl tea in Chengdu is more distinctive, using copper teapots, tin cup holders, and Jingdezhen's. Tea brewed in a porcelain bowl can be described as complete in color, aroma and taste, and there is a lingering fragrance at the corner of the mouth after tasting. If it is a special tea house in Chengdu, you can appreciate the waiter's tea making skills while tasting tea, just like watching a martial arts film, which makes people surprised and delighted, and becomes a beautiful artistic enjoyment. The specific plot was described like this:
Tang Qiao sang while turning away like a meteor, holding a long-beaked copper teapot in his right hand, stuck in his left hand to the sito pad and a white porcelain bowl, his left hand was raised, "uproar", a string of tea pads flew out of his hand, the tea pads just stopped, "clicked", the bowls and bowls put in the tea pads, picked up the teapot, the dragonfly lit the water, a circle of tea bowls, the bowls and bowls of fresh water mixed with the tip, but there was no splash out of the bowl.

Especially in the tea house tea tasting, the emphasis is on tranquility, do not shout, as long as it is a tea taster, through the different forms of bowl placement, others can understand the spirit, know what you want to do. For example, putting the lid aside indicates that you need to put tea on it; putting the lid on the tea bowl in turn indicates that you are temporarily leaving and will come back, and others will not occupy your seat; sink the tea lid into the tea bowl, indicating that if you don't drink, the shopkeeper will clean the venue; and the tea lid, tea bowl, and tea saucer are separated and laid out, indicating that you are not happy to drink tea this time, and you are not satisfied. It seems that Chengdu's bowl of tea is really silent at this time, and everything is in the word!
Chengdu's bowl tea is not only exquisite in tea sets, but also unique in tea houses. Nowadays, the tea house in Chengdu can be said to be extremely luxurious, full of grade, and the material of the seats is high-grade rattan. With the improvement of people's material living standards, Chengdu's high-end cultural tea houses are quite sought after by some people.
