Deep Steep Strainer
Best stainless steel infuser for loose-leaf tea enthusiasts.
This deep-basket strainer gives loose-leaf tea the room it needs to fully expand, delivering a much richer cup than standard, cramped infusers. It trades the ritual of a traditional teapot for the convenience of a single mug without sacrificing the quality of your steep.
