High-quality Japanese tea deserves a high-quality kyusu. We first developed this small kyusu design decades ago, and ever since, it has been a pillar of our selection.

While this kyusu can be used for any type of tea, we use it most often with sencha and gyokuro green teas.

At home, we turn to this teapot for concentrated tea sessions alone or with a few others. It brews around 4 oz (120 ml), for one to three small cups of tea. Its small, wide shape allows us to bring out the full nuanced character of delicate sencha and gyokuro teas.

Completely handmade to our specifications by an artisan in Nagasaki Prefecture, each of these kyusu is one-of-a-kind—a companion to be cared for and treasured over a lifetime of tea sessions.

Hasami-yaki has been famous for its porcelain since the 1600s, and we chose to work with a skilled Hasami-yaki artisan when designing our Small Porcelain Kyusu and Teacups. The brilliant snow-white color of Hasami-yaki porcelain highlights the goldenrod color of our teas.
