I’ve been using a cup like this for a while now and it’s honestly quite enjoyable. Tipping it back and forth feels like part of the ritual—it’s interactive in a calming way. I usually brew with more traditional setups, but this one’s my favorite when I want something quick and easy. Cleaning is a breeze too—just one solid piece to rinse. It’s perfect for desk tea while I’m working. You do have to pour in just the right amount of water so it tips smoothly without spilling, but once you figure that out, it’s a fun change of pace.

For teas that don’t expand much—like hojicha, kukicha, or some rolled oolongs—this cup works beautifully. It’s a clever way to control steeping without needing timers or extra strainers. One tip: avoid stuffing in too much tea. Just a few grams go a long way because many teas expand to several times their dry size.

Honestly, I’m not usually into tea gadgets, but this one’s clever. You can steep and pause without using an infuser or extra dishware. I often find myself reaching for it when I want tea without making a full mess in the kitchen.

It’s different, and that’s a good thing. Not everything has to look or function like traditional teaware to be useful. When used with the right kind of leaf and the right amount, it can be a really convenient tool. I mostly use it when I want a quick steep during work or reading. For more delicate teas, I still use teapots.
