In Japan, a tea ceremony is a spiritual process, deeply rooted in Zen philosophy. The ceremony brings harmony and inner peace and surfaces a simple and transitory moment of tranquility.
As such, one will usually find a teapot in any household that serves as a vehicle for this purpose. If you are looking for a new teapot, look no further than Kinto, a company that specializes in making beautiful, functional, and long-lasting tea utensils. We love this one and can be found in their store in Nakameguro.
