Tezumi Icchin Shippo Senchawan

Kiyomizu-yaki is a prestigious style of Japanese pottery originating from the historic pottery district near Kiyomizu-dera temple in Kyoto. It is renowned for its refined craftsmanship, delicate hand-painted details, and high-quality porcelain, making it a hallmark of traditional Japanese artistry.

Yes, this cup is specifically designed for high-grade sencha, which is typically brewed in small, concentrated amounts. The 40ml size allows you to savor the nuanced flavors and aromas of premium leaves in the traditional Japanese style.

Because this piece features delicate hand-painted details and gold accents, it is not dishwasher or microwave safe. We recommend washing it gently by hand with a soft sponge and mild detergent to preserve the integrity of the artwork.

The tapered, tulip-like shape is designed to concentrate the tea's aroma toward the rim, enhancing your sensory experience. Additionally, the white porcelain interior provides a clean backdrop that allows you to appreciate the vibrant color and clarity of your brewed tea.

While it is optimized for Japanese green tea, its elegant design makes it suitable for any small-volume beverage, such as matcha or a small pour of coffee. However, keep in mind that it is not insulated, so it will not retain heat as long as a double-walled or thicker ceramic cup.
