Shiboridashi

Shiboridashi "絞 り 出 し“ -  traditional Japanese teapot for brewing Sencha and Gyokuro

The "Shiboridashi" is a tea utensil for enjoying high quality Japanese green tea such as Gyokuro. It compares very well with a gaiwan, but there are some differences. Most Shibos have a spout for pouring and a kind of filter that holds back the tea leaves when pouring.

A shiboridashi is the best way to bring out the rich taste of Gyokuro. Because of this, it is loved by people who enjoy the taste of tea as the best way to maximize its aroma and guarantee delicious taste. Basically you can use all kinds of tea in a Shiboridashi, such as B. prepare Chinese green teas, oolong or pu erh.
