Should I do a side by side yixing vs. gaiwan review?

So I’ve been using my yixing teapot for about 100 grams of tea between menghai v93 tuocha, menghai 2009 red aura, and the samples that Bonnie so graciously sent me. At this point teavivres teapot has a constant deep smell, and the inside of the pot seems to be getting darker. It seems like it is no longer taking flavor and may even be giving a little bit of depth into the tea. I was wondering if anyone would like to read a side by side review of menghai v93 using a yixing teapot and gaiwan?

I think that would be very neat to read as someone who does not own and doesn’t intend to ever own a yixing but is fascinated by them. If you do it, let us know!

I’ll try to get one done sometimes this week. I’ll add it as a tasting not and copy it here

I think it would be very interesting to see the difference between the two styles!
