Without necessarily initiating a traditional Japanese tea ceremony, the original inspiration behind these teapots sets the scene to savour a cup of this delicately brewed beverage. Cast iron can be placed onto direct heat to boil or heat up water & then infuse it with loose leaf tea or an infusion. Cast iron enhances the flavour of the tea, allowing discerning connoisseurs to truly enjoy the aromatic flavours of a wide range of teas. Made from cast iron, it is perfectly suited to retain the right temperature throughout the tasting!
