The Ume Yuzamashi is a hand-painted hot water cooler crafted in Tokoname, one of Japan's most celebrated kiln towns. Its matte black clay body features a delicate cascading ume (plum blossom) motif, a beautiful and functional addition to any tea practice.
Temperature is everything in Japanese tea. Simply pour boiling water into the yuzamashi to cool it to your ideal brewing temperature:
Gyokuro: ~50°C
Sencha & Matcha: 70–80°C
Hojicha & Oolong: 90°C+
Each piece is individually hand-painted in Tokoname, Japan, meaning no two are exactly alike, a true mark of authentic Japanese craft.

Each piece is made by hand, so the glaze on yours will differ from the photograph. That variation is the character of the piece, not a flaw.
