Tosen kiln handcrafted in the ancient pottery town of Tokoname, Japan, these exquisite kyusu teapots represent over 1,000 years of artisanal excellence. Each teapot is masterfully shaped from the region's signature red clay, prized for its high iron content and superior heat retention properties.

 

The distinctive characteristics of a Tokoname kyusu make it the perfect vessel for brewing Japanese green teas. The built-in clay mesh filter, called "sasame," is integrated directly into the spout through expert craftsmanship, eliminating the need for additional metal strainers while providing optimal leaf expansion and extraction. The side-handle design (yokode kyusu) offers perfect balance and precise pouring control, essential for achieving the perfect brew.

Each kyusu's unglazed interior develops a natural patina over time, enhancing the tea's flavor profile and aroma with every use. The teapot's compact size, typically holding 200-300ml, is ideally suited for traditional Japanese tea preparation methods, where multiple short infusions are preferred.

Beyond its functional excellence, each Tokoname kyusu is a work of art. The teapot's surface showcases the clay's natural beauty, often featuring subtle variations in color and texture. Traditional decorative techniques such as carving, stamping, or the application of local mogusa (mineral inlays) make each piece uniquely beautiful.

While ancient in origin, these teapots are perfectly suited for modern tea enthusiasts who appreciate the seamless blend of functionality, craftsmanship, and aesthetic beauty in their daily tea ritual.

Good to have if you've never seen the iTEP exam, but don't rely on it to boost your scores
Format: Paperback
This book is good in that it comes with two practice tests: one in the beginning of the book, one in the end of the book. The grading rubric is helpful too. However, the actual guide part of the book, doesn't help too much with how to improve test scores. What I like least about this guide is that it won't tell you which questions you answered incorrectly on the practice exams. A good test prep guide will tell you what you answered incorrectly, and will tell you what logic to follow to get to the correct answer. In the reading passages, it would be nice to know where I can find evidence to justify the "correct" answer. In the grammar section, it would be nice to know which rule I'm violating. Any test guide should always come with some testing strategies. I.E. If this question is taking up too much time, skip it and go to the next one. This guide lacks simple strategies like that. Simple strategies like that could be useful when incorporated into this guide because there are certain sections on the exam that you can go back to previous questions, but some sections where the "back" button is disabled. Overall, if you've never seen an iTEP exam before, this book is certainly helpful in that it will give you an idea of what you will be testing for. However, this book alone won't help you achieve a score of 6. The table of contents itself will tell you there are only 86 pages of actual content covering test material. That's not enough to cover how to excel in the exam.

Don't buy it
Format: Paperback
It does not prepare for the real test. Using it is absolutely not enough to be approved with good grades. Too expensive for what it offers.
