Know before you buy
The unglazed ceramic interior is porous, which allows the teapot to absorb the subtle oils and tannins of the tea over time. This process can mellow the flavor profile of your brews, making it ideal for dedicated tea drinkers who want to season their pot with a specific type of tea.
Yes, the 80-mesh Hi-Mesh filter is specifically designed to handle fine-cut Japanese teas like Sencha or Fukamushi. It prevents small particles from entering your cup while ensuring a smooth, sediment-free pour.
Because the interior is unglazed, you should avoid using soap or detergents, as the ceramic will absorb the scent. Simply rinse the teapot with hot water after each use and allow it to air dry completely.
The 310ml capacity is best suited for one to two people. It is designed for the traditional Japanese style of brewing, which focuses on small, concentrated infusions rather than large-volume servings.
The handle is designed for comfort and balance, allowing for a steady pour. While it is made of ceramic, it is positioned away from the main body of the pot to minimize heat transfer, though it will still be warm to the touch when the pot is filled with boiling water.
