Amazing teapot. Thank you very much !
Yutaro Yamada (山田勇太朗, b. 1992) belongs to the youngest generation of Tokoname teapot makers — the first kyusu specialist in his potting family, working in self-dug clay, shudei, mogake and yohen.
(Aichi Prefecture, Japan )
Tokoname is one of Japan’s Six Ancient Kilns and has been a center of ceramic production for over 900 years. Known especially for its red clay teapots, or kyūsu, Tokoname’s ceramics combine functionality with a deep respect for traditional forms. The iron-rich clay used here lends itself to minimalist, unglazed surfaces that are prized by tea drinkers for how they enhance the flavor of brewed tea. Many Tokoname potters are deeply involved with tea culture, and this is reflected in the precision and subtlety of their work.
Our gallery, studio, and tea space are a hub for experiencing and sharing the art of ceramics and tea.
Similar to the concept of “Utsuwa-galleries” in Japan, we are holding monthly exhibitions of unique ceramicists from Japan, China and Europe.
We also regularly host Workshops and Tea Experiences.
Well balanced, intense flavor, present umami and no bitterness or astringency. One of my favorites!
Das war einer bester Sheng Pu-ehr je ich getrunken habe!
Ich würde gerne diesen Tee zum Probieren empfehlen
Dieser Gyokuro hat einen stark ausgeprägten Umami-Geschmack mit leicht wahrnehmbaren Zitrusnoten im Aroma. Dieses Qualität eignet sich nach dem Aufguss auch zum Verzehr, indem man die Blätter einfach mit Sojasauce mischt.
