Master the Perfect Brew with a Yuzamashi (Water Cooler)
A Yuzamashi is an essential tool for any tea lover aiming to extract the full umami and delicate flavors of Japanese tea. Pouring boiling water into this vessel instantly lowers the temperature by approximately 5-10 degrees Celsius.

Every tea variety has its ideal brewing temperature: roughly 70 degrees Celsius for Sencha and 40 degrees Celsius for high-quality Gyokuro. This Yuzamashi gives you precise control over your water temperature, ensuring a perfect cup every time.

Please note that Yuzamashi crafted by Gyokko feature a unique "Gyokko" stamp rather than the standard "Gyokko" mark found on his teapots.

Gyokko Kiln
Master artisan Umehara Gyokko II handcrafts each piece. Both the second and third generations of the Gyokko lineage are certified Traditional Craftsmen, upholding centuries of expertise.

Note: As these are handmade items, exact dimensions and capacities vary between individual pieces. The natural kiln firing creates unique color variations in the finish, so your item may differ slightly from the product photos.

Tokoname Ware
As one of Japan's Six Ancient Kilns, Tokoname pottery dates back to the late Heian period. Artisans utilize iron-rich clay from the Chita Peninsula to create the signature deep-red "Shudei" finish, a hallmark of this historic Japanese craft.
