Like a houhin, it has a wide, triangular open spout which allows for fast pouring, a simple ceramic do-ake filter which lends no metallic taste to the tea.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eThis kyusu's large size is ideal for serving multiple guests or brewing larger batches of houjicha.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eThis teapot is made by Tsubakihide Kiln (椿秀窯), also known as Shutouen (萩陶苑).\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eLike most Hagi ware, this piece is porous and will absorb water and tea and change colour over time. Before its first use, we recommend soaking the entire piece in warm water for at least two hours to dislodge any dust. This also allows water to fill the cracks and pores, slowing the rate at which tea stains the clay. Slowing the staining process allows the colour change to progress naturally and beautifully.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Tsubakihide Kiln","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":45548338217004,"sku":"US-K95","price":124.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0685\/9174\/7116\/files\/1cW7H1Lqiy2qrGLluNdrcr5u38oDkfmiT.jpg?v=1779029897","url":"https:\/\/rak1pm-kn.myshopify.com\/products\/purple-hagi-yaki-teapot-400ml","provider":"NEBULAPRIMEX ","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
