Our Kyusu pot "Hono" for Japanese green tea stands out with its vibrant orange tone. Made from iron-containing clay from Tokoname , a product of the Chita Peninsula, it combines traditional Japanese craftsmanship with functional innovation. The high iron content of the clay from which the pot is made not only gives it its distinctive color, but also improves the taste experience of the tea . The iron reacts with the tannins in the tea and ensures a softer and fuller flavor.

The "Hono" Kyusu is a masterpiece of Tokoname pottery from Aichi , whose origins date back to the 8th century. The use of the sophisticated "Suriawase" method ensures a perfect fit between the pot and lid . This feature makes for a pot that is not only visually appealing, but also convincing in its use.

Unlike traditional Tokoname models, our "Hono" features an innovative strainer design that integrates seamlessly into the pot and makes pouring easier. This feature simplifies cleaning and ensures that tea leaves do not obstruct the flow of water .

The "Hono" Kyusu is available in two sizes : as a "small" version with a volume of 360 ml and as a "large" version with 560 ml.

With the Kyusu "Hono" you not only acquire a piece of elegant functionality , but also a deep appreciation for Japanese culture and craftsmanship. It is ideal as a special gift for tea fans or as a highlight of your tea collection.
