Thanks to its flat and wide shape, this teapot is particularly suitable for premium quality teas, because as they have larger space to open, the leaves graze each other less, releasing less catechin, thus revealing the tea's true sweetness and gentle elegance.
This yokode kyusu is made with great precision, ensuring a beautiful flow without dribbling.

Handling precautions
Initiation:
Before first use, rinse it with hot water, then let it dry completely!
Usage:
Avoid placing it on hot surfaces, like stove, and never use in microwave or oven.
Cleaning:
Tea stain is the natural part of a teapot's "maturing process", but if you prefer to avoid it, rinse the teapot well after every use, do not let the tea leaves sit in it for too long. It is better to avoid dishwashing liquid, but you can use gentle, organic soap to clean your pot. Never use bleach!
Avoid using dishwasher or dryer!
To clean the built-in strainer, run water backwards from the spout, or use a toothbrush or toothpick.
Storage:
After use, always let it dry completely, for if stored away while still wet, it might develop an unpleasant smell or mold.
Non-glazed ceramic tea pots absorb scents and flavours, so only prepare one class of tea in them (green tea, black tea, roasted tea, etc).
perfect kyusu for sampling this years shincha! fresh first harvest, and a fresh new kyusu. Only caveat is that the lid does not align with the rim as perfectly as my other kyusu, and some tea will drip out of the lid if you pour too quickly. However if you pour slow to avoid this, the tea will travel down the side of the spout, so it takes a bit more focus to pour from this kyusu elegantly for guests. This might just be my luck though, so give it a try! Its flat shape is great for trying the shincha at a low temperature.
