Cooling vessel, dark

Product information "Cooling vessel, dark"

Green tea should not be infused with boiling water. However, we recommend boiling the water once, as this makes it softer and reduces the lime content. 
To cool the water down, the Japanese then use so-called yuzamashi - cooling vessels with a spout. By decanting the water, the temperature drops a little faster and the elegant, simple vessel looks good with any tea set. 
Tip: if you want to fill several cups, you can pour the tea into the cooling vessel first and then pour it out. This ensures that the tea is equally strong in all cups. And if the cups are already full but there is still tea left in the pot, the tea can be stored temporarily in the cooling vessel without it becoming ‘bitter’ in the pot due to excessive infusion time.
 This cooling vessel has a slightly uneven, corrugated surface with practical recessed grips and a matt, dark surface. The thick-walled clay is easy to handle even in hot temperatures.
