Tetsukyusu cast iron teapots have long been cherished for their elegant design, durability, and excellent heat-retention abilities. Heat distributes evenly throughout the teapot, enhancing the flavor and helping tea stay hot for longer. Cast iron teapots can also improve the quality of water, making it softer and smoother, which may contribute to a more refined tea experience. The fully enamelled interior helps preserve the natural taste of tea and allows for easy maintenance. The teapot is safe to use and contains no chemical additives or lead.

For centuries, the Japanese and Chinese have used cast iron teapots to brew their finest teas, adding a touch of artistic elegance to their homes. The tea ceremony represents a moment of tranquillity and relaxation amid a busy life. We recommend complementing your tea ritual with a set of cast iron teacups in Japanese style and a matching cast iron warmer to keep your tea hot even longer. If you are not using a warmer, place your teapot on a cast iron trivet to protect the surface beneath it. When pouring tea, hold the lid or remove it briefly. You may also use a lid holder to keep the lid in place during pouring.

Warning

Never place the teapot directly on a heat source to boil water. Use it only on a tea warmer to maintain the temperature of already boiled water or tea.

Notes

• Do not leave an empty teapot on a heated tea warmer.
• Never leave a burning tea warmer unattended.
• Rinse the teapot with warm water after use, or wait until it cools before rinsing.
• Do not wash the teapot in a dishwasher.

Usage Tips

• Hold the lid while pouring tea.
• A suitable tea light warmer can be used to maintain the temperature of your tea.
