Hario Chacha Kyusu-Maru - Pot for Brewing Tea 300ml

Lovely, pretty and makes good tea.

Love this teapot. Great design and quite delicate .I have started to drink loose leaf green tea and this teapot with it's big infuser lets the tea expand to it fullest. I am able to use the tea again to make another cuppa. It's the smallest of the Hario teapot, great for one person. It makes a big mug of tea or two small cups. The service from Japan was also great. It took about 2 weeks to arrive but was well worth the wait! I would recommend this teapot.

I love it

This is my second Hario kyusu teapot. I had the 450ml version first. Superb teapot. I loved the design, but unfortunately it was very fragile. It broke with only a very light knock (crack on the main body where the lid sits). I was reluctant to buy another. I have dexterity issues with my hands and didn't want to spend money on teaware I'd just break. I did managed to find an 'unbreakable' kyusu, but it was expensive and needed to be imported from Japan. I've bought the 300ml version this time. It feels more sturdy to me. I'm hoping it last longer! In use, it's obviously great for teas like sencha (as you would expect for a kyusu style teapot). The filter is large, giving lots of room to the leaves, and the mesh is fine to help filter those bits from Japanese teas. It also makes a great solo teapot for other teas too. It's good for people wanting western style - i.e. add tea, steep a few mins, poor into teacupt. It's also good for gong fu style brewing - particularly for people who aren't keen on gaiwans. Another tip; the basket is wide/large enough to sit in many mugs/teacups. So you can brew directly into a cup or mug instead of using the teapot (I like to do this for herbal tisanes where I want more than 300ml).

This is a fantastic little teapot which is very easy to clean but also very chic. I found the sellers extremely helpful and always replied to any queries I had. Highly recommended if you want a teapot for one.

This is the fourth tea pot I have used. It has quickly become my favourite. The large infuser gives so much room for the tea leaves to expand and 'breathe.' I find this makes a small but noticeable difference to the taste for all teas. The difference is more pronounced if you use the "Gong Fu" style of brewing, which works well with Oolong and Pu-erh teas. As I am an avd fan of Oolong teas, I have quickly grown to love this tea pot. But wait! There is more! I have found both the pot and infuser alot easier to clean than my previous "for life" tea pot, mostly owing to its shape. The aesthetics of the glass design adds to the tea-making experience in a way that I had no anticipated. I feel like I am using a more expensive tea pot when I use this! Lastly, the item was packaged with plentiful bubble wrap but did take a month to arrive. This didn't really bother me conisdering how cheap the delivery was. Overall, I am very pleased with this teapot and would not hesitate to recommend it to a friend.

Perfect for my loose herbal tea. Leaves have plenty of room, just the right size for one cup.

Absolutely love this teapot it is the capacity I want and looks good. Now I can get back to using loose tea.

I'd have liked something smaller for small quantity and multiple times brewing style. It's a lovely teapot. It's sturdier than other glass teapots I have. Really good quality, small size glass tea pot. The mesh is good, the lid does slide, every type of glass tea pot has the lid sliding issue. It has a more convenient pour than a spouted teapot. All things considered, it's a lovely teapot.

Mi faccio tè praticamente ogni giorno, la capacità è ideale per uno o due e adoro il vetro per vedere le foglie che si aprono e il colore dell'infuso.

Voilà un théière japonaise légendaire et appréciée (voir les nombreux commentaires élogieux, et souvent très drôles, sur amazon UK), à juste titre. A mon avis elle est effectivement parfaite. Soit, elle est en verre mais, même si celui-ci n'est pas particulièrement épais, elle semble solide. Bien sûr une chute lui sera fatale, mais elle résiste sans problème à de petits chocs. Aucun risque de casse en la remplissant d'eau bouillante non plus. Le filtre est particulièrement large et profond, laissant le thé infuser librement en étant toujours totalement immergé. Surtout son tamis est très fin, du coup il de laisse rien passer, même du rooibos, et il est facile à nettoyer. Le bec est parfaitement étudié : il est généreux et précis et ne produit aucune fuite. Le couvercle tient parfaitement, même quand la théière est quasi vide ou remplie à ras bord. L'anse n'est jamais chaude. Quel plaisir que de voir les feuilles de thé prendre progressivement vie pendant l'infusion ! Quel confort que de pouvoir juger de la robe d'un thé directement dans le théière ! Seule curiosité, les modèles de plus forte contenance sont moins chers. Mais ce modèle est le plus adapté à la dégustation du thé en solo ou en duo. ============ note de début septembre 2017 ================= Cette théière est maintenant à un prix très abordable, et cohérent avec les modèles de plus forte contenance. Aucune raison de se retenir de l'acheter. Je suis toujours satisfait de la mienne, même si j'aurais pu la payer bien moins cher en attendant quelques semaines ! ======================================================

Klein und gut, tropft wirklich nicht, liegt gut in def Hand, das Sieb ist groß und lässt die losen Teeblätter sich gut entfalten, den Deckel muß man beim Einschenken mit der zweiten Hand am Knauf halten, er ist aber nicht heiß. Ich mache mir grünen Tee darin, es sind drei kleine Teetassen - mir reicht es für 1x Teetrinken, kann ich nur empfehlen

Cette théière fait le travail. Elle est transparente et permet ainsi de voir se développer les feuilles. A laver régulièrement pour enlever les traces de tanin et lui garder toute sa transparence; Grande ouverture et filtre très pratique. Prévoir une curette à crabe, par exemple, pour ôter le filtre.
