This tea pot is called Kyusu which I got from a Japanese website, Kimikura.
I love green tea and what I have is the loose leaf silver moon variety from TWG. My glass tea pot broke and I searched for a tea pot that's cute and found one from Kimikura.
For some reason the tea tastes better when brewed in this teapot. It's very tiny and has a capacity of 220ml only. I'm the only one drinking green tea in the house anyway.

This one is specifically for matcha powder. But I love using it for my loose leaf green tea.

It is very cute because of the cat print. I chose this over the plain colored ones and the flower printed ones. They are hand painted too.

I used to have one similar to that but stopped drinking tea when doctors told me I had to cut back on sugar. I never bought loose-leaf tea but did like whole-leaf teas in a bag. They're just like loose-leaf teas but you don't leave the mess in your teapot or your cup.

I love green tea and I only drink green tea and they must be from TWG.
This pot is specifically for matcha powder.

OH yes and it's hand painted as well.
They advise to use only water in cleaning it. No dishwashing soap allowed.

Tea does taste better when it's brewed in a clay pot. They have an explanation for that.

It's actually a tea pot and you cannot drink from it but you have to pour it in a cup after brewing the tea leaves.
