Japanese Green Tea

A Kyusu is a traditional Japanese ceramic teapot specially designed to brew green tea. Kyusu are available in all shapes, sizes, and colors. You can buy anything from tiny one-cup Kyusu to gigantic Kyusu that hold enough tea for twelve or more people! The Kyusu we have selected for you is the most popular size, 360ml (12.67fl oz), perfect for 1 - 3 people. This Kyusu is a very classic natural red color and simple style. It has a fine mesh filter at the base of the spout of the Kyusu, so even tiny tea leaves (ex: Fukamushi Sencha) will not come out from the Kyusu. If the mesh filter is too fine, the aroma and taste can't be extracted enough and the filter can easily become blocked. Our Kyusu mesh filter is the perfect size for all kinds of tea leaves. Lead-free. Made in Japan. Free shipping on all tea ware items! (Directions) - If the filter gets blocked, you can place this Kyusu in water with a little chlorine detergent for a few hours. The filter will then become clear. - When turning the Kyusu to pour tea, you must hold the lid in place with your finger, otherwise the lid could fall off the pot and possibly get damaged. This is the usual way to pour tea with a Kyusu.
