Shiboridashi Teapot

Roughly translating to "squeeze-pour" in Japanese, the design of shiboridashi teapots allows you to extract every last drop of liquid from your brew. Similar in construction to a Chinese gaiwan, shiboridashi is the simplest form of Japanese teapot, consisting of only a spouted bowl and lid. We love this one's elegant proportions and special charcoal-fired finish. It's the perfect little vessel to wrap in a furoshiki (wrapping cloth) and accompany you during travel.  Note: We recommend this style and shape for preparing green or white teas.
