RINKA Shiboridashi Japanese Teapot Wooden Box cultivated in a harsh climateThe matte glaze and the petal motif on the lid of this shiboridashi ceramic Japanese teapot lend it an elegant, serene appearance. Designed as a small, handleless pot with a tightly fitting lid, this shiboridashi is often used for high quality green teas, especially those brewed at lower temperatures, like gyokuro or sencha. Instead of a conventional strainer, it features carved grooves near the spout, which allow the teas flavor to fully develop.
