Learn all the secrets of the Tokoname Kyusu

This beautiful Tokoname Kyusu is handmade by skilled Japanese craftsman using Tokoname clay, considered to be the best in Japan. It has an elegant side handle, allowing you to gracefully pour out your green tea with just a simple turn of the wrist.

How to use the Tokoname Kyusu

The Tokoname Kyusu is easy to use, all it takes is following four basic steps. First off, heat up the water, put the leaves into the teapot, pour in the water, and finally, give the tea some time to brew.

    Step 2

    Add 5 grams of tea leaves to the Tokoname Kyusu. If you prefer, you can warm up the teapot by pouring in some hot water, waiting for 30 seconds, and then pouring it out before adding the leaves.

  • Step 3

    Once the tea leaves are in the Tokoname Kyusu, you can gently add 150ml of water.

    Step 4

    Cover the Tokoname Kyusu with the lid and let the leaves steep for 1-2 minutes, depending on the tea variety. When the brewing is finished, pour it into your glass, and the built-in filter will prevent leaves from entering your cup.

    After infusing the leaves once, you can get 2-3 additional uses out of them. Stick to the same water temperature, the same quantity, but steep for just 20 seconds in each subsequent brewing.

    If you fancy cold-brewed tea in your Tokoname Kyusu, toss in 5 grams of tea leaves and 400ml of room temperature or cool water. Wait for 1-3 hours, then pour out the teapot, and enjoy your cool and refreshing green tea!
