What does it mean to "become Chinese" in the age of TikTok? For overseas content creators and TikTok users, it's a vibe, a practice, and now, a convenient way to brew with a Guangdong-made smart kettle.
Morphy Richards is a British-born brand now under Chinese ownership in Foshan City, Guangdong Province. The brand's smart home appliances combine technology with Chinese wellness rituals, making traditional Chinese herb-brewing as easy as a tap.
With multiple preset modes, the smart kettle simplifies the process of brewing water, tea, and desserts, turning the growing TikTok trend of boiling hot apple water into a one-touch routine. By using the portable smart kettle from Morphy Richards, the brew can be poured into a travel-friendly version, allowing users to "be Chinese" anytime, anywhere.
