Hojicha Komaru Kyusu Teapot

The unglazed, iron-rich clay is porous, which allows it to absorb subtle oils and tannins from the tea over time. This process is believed to mellow out bitterness and enhance the flavor profile of your green tea with every use.

Yes, the integrated Ceramesh strainer is precision-crafted to filter out even fine particles while providing ample space for leaves to unfurl fully. It is specifically designed to prevent clogging while ensuring a clean pour.

Because the unglazed clay absorbs flavor, it is best to dedicate this teapot to one specific type of tea, such as green tea or hojicha. Using it for strongly flavored teas like Earl Grey or herbal blends may cause lingering aromas that affect future brews.

Simply rinse the teapot with warm water after each use and gently wipe the interior. Avoid using soap, as the porous clay can absorb the scent and residue, and always allow it to air-dry completely before storing.

This teapot is designed primarily for individual servings or intimate pours. It is perfect for a focused, single-cup experience rather than serving a large group.
