TWO WAYS TO ENJOY JAPANESE TEA

Matcha or Steeped Tea?

Japanese tea takes many forms, but most rituals begin in one of two ways: whisking powdered tea directly in the bowl, or steeping whole leaves gently in a teapot.

WHISKED TEA

Matcha

Chawan · Chasen · Chashaku
Matcha is prepared directly in the bowl. Finely ground tea is combined with hot water and whisked until smooth and lightly frothy. The shape of the chawan gives the whisk room to move, while the bamboo chasen creates the tea’s characteristic texture.

STEEPED TEA

Sencha, Gyokuro & Hojicha

Kyusu · Yunomi · Tea Canisters
Leaf teas are brewed gently in a kyusu before being poured into small cups. Water temperature, brewing time and the shape of the teapot all influence the result, from the fresh character of sencha to the sweetness of gyokuro and the roasted warmth of hojicha.

JAPANESE TEA CRAFT

The Vessel Matters

In Japanese tea, the bowl, cup or teapot is more than a container. Its material, shape and finish affect how the tea is prepared, poured and experienced.
A wide chawan leaves space for the bamboo whisk to move freely. A side-handled kyusu gives control when pouring small servings of sencha or gyokuro. Yunomi are shaped to sit naturally in the hand, while different clays and glazes change the weight, texture and warmth of each piece.
Across Japan, regional traditions have developed their own approaches to tea ceramics. Tokoname is especially known for teapots, while Mino, Arita and other ceramic regions offer distinct combinations of clay, porcelain, glaze and form.
The best teaware is not simply admired. It is designed to be used, handled and enjoyed over time.

FIND THE RIGHT PIECE

Choosing Your Teaware

Start with the tea you enjoy most. The right vessel should make preparation easier, feel good in the hand and become part of the ritual.
FOR WHISKED TEA

For Matcha

Choose a chawan with enough width for the whisk to move freely and a form that feels comfortable to hold.
