The perfect introduction for those wishing to experience sencha with a kyusu (teapot).
We walked the historic streets of Tokoname, Japan’s renowned home of teapots, to find the right kyusu. We then sought out yunomi (teacups) in Mino, where white porcelain was chosen to beautifully reflect the vivid green of sencha.
The kyusu is slightly smaller in size, reflecting a popular style in Japan, and comes with one carefully selected sencha.
Though called a “starter set,” each piece has been handpicked from its region of origin, ensuring an authentic and timeless combination.
Limited to just 10 sets, each includes one recommended sencha to complete the experience.
