Morimasa Mt. Fuji and Sakura Tokoname Japanese Teapot 10.8oz(320ml)-Band
While retaining the natural atmosphere of clay, the polished and smooth texture and the minimalistic form cultivated through a long tradition convey an elegant atmosphere. The lids of Tokoname teapot are known for their tight fit and airtightness, which allows the tea to slowly draw out its flavor.
Tokoname ware has the largest share of teapot production in Japan. Tokoname ware is located in the southwest of Aichi Prefecture and is one of the six major ceramic production areas in Japan, known as the “Rokkoyo (Six Old Kilns)". The smooth and beautiful earthenware fired at high temperatures has supported the life and tea culture of Japan.
A fine mesh strainer made of stainless steel called a "band strainer" is built into the body of the teapot. It is less likely to clog and pours out tea most quickly, allowing tea leaves to float more freely than cup strainers and brewing more fragrant tea. You can enjoy a quick cup of tea with rich flavor while you are busy with housework or work.
With its size and the fine mesh strainer, this teapot is suitable for any tea types. Fukamushicha(deeply steamed tea), Hojicha(roasted tea), and Genmaicha(brown rice tea) are especially recommended.
