Know before you buy
A Katakuchi is a traditional Japanese pouring bowl featuring a small spout. This design makes it significantly easier to whisk your matcha and pour it into smaller cups or vessels without spilling.
Yes, the ceramic construction is designed for regular use. While the glaze is elegant, it is durable enough to withstand daily tea preparation, provided you handle it with the care typical of fine Japanese ceramics.
We recommend hand washing the bowl with mild soap and warm water. Avoid using harsh abrasives or putting it in the dishwasher to preserve the integrity of the White Pepper glaze.
While specifically designed for the whisking and pouring requirements of matcha, its size and shape make it a versatile vessel for serving other loose-leaf teas or even as a small decorative serving piece.
The bowl measures 13 x 14 centimeters in width and length, with a height of 6.5 centimeters (approximately 2.36 inches). Its tapered shape is specifically balanced to provide enough surface area for effective whisking.
