Cast iron teaware is one of the icons of traditional Japanese tea ceremony. In recent years the old-fashioned utensils have regained popularity among tea lovers as more evidence has shown that ironware can help with iron supplement and therefore good for health. Some users report that ironware-brewed tea tastes sweeter and smoother, which is largely due to the interaction between the iron ions and tea tannins. 

The multipurposed product, uniquely designed like a flat pumpkin, can be used to boil water as a kettle (stovetop safe), or to brew tea as teapot. Its best companion is definitely the teacup of same material and quality. However you can buy them separately. 

A set of cast iron teaware should never be missing from a tea lover’s collection. Also it is a distinctive gift for friends and family at all occasions.

How to take care of it

  • Before first use: Put some loose tea or a tea bag into the pot and brew for about 10 min. Dump the tea water and Refill. Repeat for 2-3 times until the tea water is clear without impurities.
  • During use: ①Maximum water volume should be less than 80% of full capacity. ② When at a high temperature, ironware contacting cold water may cause cracking. 
  • After use:
    • Pot: Take off the infuser and lid. Put the pot on low flame till all the remaining water evaporates. 
    • Teacup: To clean, dishwashing detergent, brushes, or scourer are not recommended. Simply rinse with water. Wipe off water with dry cloth or paper right away to protect from rusting.
  • Everyday maintenance: Always store the ironware in a cool and dry place. If not in use for a long while, it is recommended to wrap and fill with newspaper to absorb possible moist.
