Kyusu Japanese Teapot - Mogake shiboridashi - 50ml - #54
Handmade in Tokoname, Japan by Hakusan
This style of teapot is designed for very high grade Japanese sencha like our Keijo okumidori or gyokuro. For these types of tea, it is recommended to use lower temperature water and the flat profile and low volume of this teapot allows the water to cool down.
The mogake decoration on this teapot is made by putting seaweed on the teapot which burns away in the kiln leaving a beautiful organic pattern.
These beautiful teapots are all made in Japan and are typically used for green tea. The smaller size of the pot allows you to pour out the entire infusion so that tea leaves can be easily re-infused numerous times. The side handle makes pouring easy and is also great for people with arthritis. Each pot contains an infuser to keep the leaves out of your cup! These are a great way to make your own tea ritual more personal.
