Japanese adjustable stainless steel tea strainer

A strainer to brew loose-leaf tea directly in the cup.

It is made of stainless steel, with a fine mesh and a conical shape. Its clips let it rest on most cups and teapots.

The leaves unfold freely in the strainer and release their aromas. Once the infusion is done, simply lift it out.

It comes from Hasami, Nagasaki Prefecture.

Simple, practical and durable: an alternative to disposable filters. For green tea, black tea or herbal infusions. Made in Japan.
