Wonderful little pot. It's easy to tell there's been put thought into the design, such as the extended lip on the front which allows for easy lid-less pouring. I wasn't able to tell this on the photos but the filter isn't flat! It's got a small bulge on it which seems to make pour even more effective. Speaking of pour: this teapot has excellent control, you can do a super slow pour (good for gyokuro), in between speeds, or a super quick empty. The lid fits very securely and is very tight, but there is a slight wobble if you press down on the edges. I'm glad such a well constructed porcelain kyusu exist, as I personally really like the taste of porcelain pots.
Japanese organic oolong tea with a floral fragrance and smoked aroma
Ad******, 2023-12-02 15:51 JST, JAPAN
Liquor is light yellow turning amber with subsequent brews. The leaves are aromatic with a pleasing milky aroma with a distinct mineral 'afternote'. As a drinker of rock teas, this feels bland on the first brew but becomes more flavorful with more mouthfuls. On subsequent brews, the mineral nature of the tea becomes more prominent and inherent flavors become more distinct. A pleasing light Oolong to enjoy during a quiet afternoon.
