The Japanese cast iron teapot is also known as tetsu-kyūsu (iron teapot), not to be confused with the tetsubin, the cast iron kettle that can be placed on the fire, and is considered by many to be the teapot par excellence: its origins can be traced back to ancient China, although it was soon adopted by the Japanese, who consider it a fundamental tool as well as a decorative object. The Japanese cast iron teapot has an enameled interior and a cast iron exterior, a blend of materials including steel, copper, and brass. Precisely because of the enameled interior typical of Japanese cast iron teapots, which prevents rust formation, these should not be placed on the fire, which could crack the inner layer. The advantage of cast iron teapots is that they are practically indestructible, very resistant, and able to keep the drink or water warm for a long time.

Japanese cast iron teapots are an important tool for preparing hot drinks, as they allow the liquid to be kept warm for a long time since cast iron is an excellent conductor of heat, able to absorb heat evenly and gradually, allowing a perfect infusion of tea leaves. Most cast iron teapots have a stainless steel filter or infuser inside, just like the Terza Luna cast iron teapot, practical and resistant, with a handle wrapped in rope to avoid burns, and an enameled interior that allows you to prepare different types of tea without the flavor being contaminated by the 'memory' of another tea. Cast iron teapots are also unique design objects, made with excellent materials and designed to prepare tea optimally. How to Use the Cast Iron Teapot? The cast iron teapot cannot be placed on the fire, being a resistant but at the same time delicate object, often being artisanal items. To ensure its longevity, it is advisable to prepare the cast iron teapot before its first use, pouring boiling water inside, leaving it for a few minutes, and then discarding it, taking care to repeat this operation several times, and to dry the inside and outside of the teapot. The cast iron teapot should be used for preparing tea or herbal teas, boiling water in a kettle or a saucepan, and then pouring it into the teapot, which will keep it warm for a long time, allowing you to enjoy several cups of tea without worrying about the water cooling. For proper maintenance of cast iron teapots, we recommend drying the inside with a cloth after use, as despite the enamel layer, prolonged stagnation of water or moisture inside could create rust over time. How to Clean Japanese Cast Iron Teapots? It is important to be very careful in cleaning your cast iron teapot, which can be washed with water and never with soaps or detergents, as these could compromise the taste of the tea if absorbed into the material or damage it. It is important never to leave water or tea too long inside the Japanese cast iron teapot, but to always dry it with a cloth. Where to Buy the Japanese Cast Iron Teapot?
