Mino Open-Top Kyusu with Extra Fine Mesh | White

If you're new to Japanese teaware or just want something simple for everyday brewing, this is a great place to start. The open top lets water cool naturally to the gentler temperatures Japanese green teas prefer, and between infusions, the leaves release heat instead of continuing to steep. The result is a cleaner, sweeter cup with less bitterness. The extra-fine 80-mesh filter handles everything from standard sencha to deep-steamed fukamushi and even konacha.  The wide opening also makes this pot easy to live with. You can see your water level at a glance, spent leaves rinse out in seconds, and there's no lid to fumble with or break. Made in Mino, Gifu Prefecture. 320ml capacity, enough for two or three small cups. Care: Rinse with warm water after use and let dry completely. No soap needed. Each piece may vary slightly in appearance from the photo. Product color may also vary slightly due to photographic lighting or monitor settings.
