Cast Iron Teapot

Koyuki translates as small snow and the lightly dimpled surface of this Oigen teapot reminds us of the superfine snow during the frigid winters in Iwate Japan (where the teapot is made). In contrast, cast iron teapots have excellent heat retention allowing you to enjoy hot tea no matter how cold it is outside. Just remember to warm the pot beforehand.

It has a wide tea strainer inside, giving the tea leaves plenty of room to unfurl. 

Oigen have been making cast iron products since 1852 and their teapots are enjoyed the world over. This product is natural cast iron with an enamel coating inside for easy care. It also has a traditional black cashew coating outside to help prevent rusting. The mesh insert will keep out all but the tiniest of tea leaves.

Cast iron retains heat effectively keeping your drink warm for extended periods. And cast iron teapots are much less prone to chipping compared to ceramics and will last many years.

For fans of slow made sustainable products, the Oigen Koyuki teapot is the perfect gift to yourself or a loved one.
