Hasamiyaki Kittate Hira Kyusu

Bluish-White (青白磁) teapot from the Yoshimura Toen kiln in Higashi Sonogi-gun, Nagasaki prefecture.

Hasamiyaki is a type of porcelain first made in Hasami town. The technique was brought from Korea and looks back 400 years of history. The porcelain is fired at a very high temperature, and as the surface vitrifies, it is suitable for all classes of teas.

Thanks to its flat and wide shape, this teapot is particularly suitable for premium quality teas, because as they have larger space to open, the leaves graze each other less, releasing less catechin, thus revealing the tea's true sweetness and gentle elegance.

Make sure you do not fill the teapot entirely full when brewing tea. The pour is best when the teapot is about 70-80% full.

Place of Origin: Higashi Sonogi-gun, Nagasaki pref., Japan
