Because the porous clay absorbs flavors, it is best to dedicate this kyusu to one specific type of tea, such as sencha or hojicha. Using it for vastly different teas may cause flavor cross-contamination.

Rinse the teapot with hot water immediately after use and allow it to air dry completely. Do not use soap, as the porous clay will absorb the scent and chemicals, and never place it in the dishwasher.

Yes, the integrated ceramic mesh is precision-crafted to filter out fine particles while ensuring a smooth, consistent pour. It is highly effective for standard Japanese green teas.

The high-temperature fired clay is not designed to withstand rapid thermal shock or direct heat sources. Using it in a microwave or on a stovetop can cause the ceramic to crack or shatter.

With a capacity of 230 ml (approximately 7.78 ounces), this teapot is perfectly sized for brewing one to two cups of tea, making it ideal for personal use or intimate tea sessions.
