#29 Yutaka Tsuzuki (200ml)

Crafted from Tokoname clay, the Tsuya Kyusu is a traditional Japanese side-handle teapot distinguished by its smooth, lustrous surface. Designed for everyday use, the clay gradually develops a deeper sheen over time, enriched by the natural oils released through repeated infusions.

Its classic side-handle form allows for smooth and precise pouring, helping extract every final drop; a gesture often referred to in Japan as the “golden drop.” Rich in minerals, Tokoname clay is also appreciated for its ability to soften bitterness and create a rounder, more balanced cup of tea.

With regular use and careful handling, the Tsuya Kyusu evolves beautifully, gaining depth, character, and a unique patina shaped by each brewing experience.
