Kyusu, 270ml, stainless steel filter

Kyusu side handle jug - 270 ml with stainless steel filter

Are you looking for a teapot that not only looks good, but also helps you to tease out the subtle nuances of your green tea? This traditional Japanese kyusu (side-handled pot) has everything you need for a harmonious, flavorful tea break - handmade, functionally well thought-out and with an extra dose of cultural depth.

This kyusu comes from the hands of experienced master potters and is made according to centuries-old craftsmanship - each piece individually shaped on the wheel and assembled with care. Its reddish-brown clay is no coincidence: it is mineral-rich natural clay from the Tokoname Yaki (Aichi Prefecture) or Banko Yaki (Mie Prefecture) regions, which are known worldwide for their high-quality teapots.

With a capacity of around 270 ml, this kyusu is ideally suited to high-quality Japanese green teas, which tend to be brewed in small quantities but several times. Thanks to the integrated stainless steel filter, the tea leaves can unfold freely inside - and this is the key to a smooth, round taste experience.

The side handle fits perfectly in the hand and makes pouring not only easy, but almost meditative. One-handed operation? Yes. But without any compromise in style or precision.

The surface impresses with a warm, earthy red tone - deliberately unglazed so that the material can breathe. Many connoisseurs swear by the fact that the aroma of the tea improves over the years, the more the pot is used. A kyusu accompanies you for years - sometimes for generations. And who knows: maybe this one will become your very own tea heirloom.

Special features at a glance:

• Handmade in Japan
• 270 ml (full to the brim, without tea leaves)
• Integrated stainless steel filter for optimal leaf development
• Natural clay from Tokoname or Banko for unadulterated taste
• Ergonomic side handle shape for controlled pouring

For all those who want to experience their tea, not just drink it. This Kyusu not only makes your Sencha or Gyokuro shine - it changes the way you look at the preparation itself. Not just pouring tea. But rather: Give it space. Take your time. Let it unfold.
