Tokoname teapots are collected as works of art or treasured as exquisite tea vessels by enthusiasts around the world. This Tokoname kyusu is ideal for brewing sencha, gyokuro, and essentially any Japanese tea. The teapot also features a built-in ceramic strainer so you never have to worry about tea leaves slipping their way into your teacup. Teapots are equipped with a built-in ceramic strainer to prevent the tea leaves from getting into your teacup. Care instructions: Use hot water to clean out kyusu before initial use. Do not use soap. After brewing tea, use your hands to ensure all tea leaves are removed and rinse thoroughly. Use the faucet to run water back into the spout to remove any residual leaf or particulate. Do not use sponges or cloths to wipe down the clay, as fibers may become lodged in the kyusu. Air dry the kyusu and lid and only store when the kyusu is completely dry.
