(3 reviews)  

If deep steamed (fukamushi-cha) green tea is your thing, then this handcrafted Banko-yaki teapot should fit your needs nicely. It  has been designed specifically for brewing deep steamed green tea, although it is suitable for all green teas including gyokuro. Unique features of this teapot include:

  • Backward sloping bottom.  This effectively separates water from the wet leaves between infusions!
  • Large, round, extra-fine stainless steel infuser removeable infuser screen. Does an especially good job of filtering the characteristically fine leaf particles of deep steamed green tea.
  • Inner rim lip extrudes into the teapot, preventing dripping from the rim when teapot is tipped to an extreme angle.
  • Square handle for an easier grip!

Rubber tip on the spout - easier to pour with less mess!

If you are looking for just one type of Japanese teapot that will brew just about any type of green tea, this item would make a very good choice.

The specialized design for Fukamushi sold it from the start and does what it says in the diagram as only the really tiny particles are left in the cup at the end. Also the capacity makes it so much easier to brew a cup and get back to work quickly as my other main teapot has a 120ml limit. Aesthetically it's not a knockout but the Banko clay retains temperature really well. Five out of five overall, as for function alone it's faultless.

Advantages: Great teapot!

I purchased this tea pot approximately 6 months ago and it is serving me well for all kinds of sencha. Extremely functional and I'm pleased with my purchase. Aesthetically as an artist/craftsman, I believe form should always follow function, and though it won't win any prize for intricacy of design, I enjoy the understated beauty of its shape and color. There is loveliness in the pot's simplicity and fits my personality.

Just a quick tip that wasn't immediately obvious to me: If you keep getting larger leaf particles in your tea, check if the infuser screen is aligned well with the spout, especially near the bottom. Since I did this it's been brewing perfectly.
