Inox Tea Infuser

This micro-perforated basket gives your tea the room it needs to fully expand, ensuring a clean, sediment-free cup every time. It lacks the artisanal charm of a traditional clay pot, but it trades that aesthetic for pure, dishwasher-safe convenience that makes daily steeping effortless.
