Cast Iron Teapots

Forged in the tradition of Japanese tetsubin, each pot retains heat beautifully and enriches water with trace iron — elevating every steep.

The Art of Iron

Cast iron teapots have been central to Japanese tea culture for over four centuries. Crafted by hand in the Nanbu tradition, each piece is seasoned, lacquered inside with food-safe enamel, and designed to last a lifetime.

The thick iron walls hold heat far longer than ceramic or glass, making them ideal for oolong, pu-erh, and herbal infusions that reward a slow, sustained steep.

Caring for Your Cast Iron

01

Rinse, don't scrub

After each use, rinse with hot water and dry immediately. Never use soap — it strips the seasoning.

02

Dry thoroughly

Leave the lid off and allow the pot to air-dry completely before storing to prevent moisture build-up.

03

Store open

Store with the lid slightly ajar to allow air circulation. A dry environment extends the life of your pot.

04

Not for stovetop

Our enamel-lined teapots are for brewing only — not for heating water directly on a flame or induction plate.

Pair with the Perfect Tea

Cast iron teapots shine with our oolong and pu-erh selections — teas that reward long, slow steeps and multiple infusions.
