Japanese Sencha Tea Set Gift- Susumuya Chaten- a small tea farm in Kagoshima

Experience the quiet beauty of Japanese tea culture with this elegant Sencha Tea Set from Susumuya Chaten, a respected Japanese tea shop specializing in high-quality green tea from Kagoshima.

This thoughtfully curated set includes everything needed to enjoy authentic Japanese green tea at home: premium sencha tea leaves, a traditional Japanese kyusu teapot, and two minimalist ceramic tea cups. Together they create a simple yet refined tea experience inspired by everyday Japanese tea rituals.

Susumuya Chaten is dedicated to sharing the freshness, natural character, and individuality of Japanese tea—from the tea fields where it is grown to the moment it is poured into the cup.

Traditional Tokoname Ceramic

The teapot is made from Tokoname clay (朱泥 – Shudei), a traditional ceramic material from Tokoname, one of Japan’s historic pottery regions. This clay contains natural iron and has excellent heat retention, making it particularly well suited for brewing Japanese tea.

Unlike many ceramics, the surface is unglazed, which creates a soft matte texture and allows the teapot to gradually develop a deeper patina over time as it absorbs tea oils. With use, the color and character of the clay slowly evolve, making each teapot more beautiful with age.

Designed to Brew Better Tea

The shape of the teapot is carefully designed to enhance the brewing process. The wide base allows tea leaves to fully open in hot water, helping extract the rich umami and aroma of Japanese green tea.

At the same time, the balanced side handle and precision spout allow the tea to be poured smoothly and evenly, ensuring that every cup receives the perfect flavor.

A Piece of Living Craft

Because the teapot is handmade and crafted from natural clay, each piece carries a sense of warmth and individuality. Over time, as it is used and cared for, the teapot develops its own character—becoming a personal tea companion that reflects the tradition of Japanese tea culture.

What’s Included

• Premium Sencha Green Tea (100g)
Fresh Japanese green tea leaves from Kagoshima with a smooth balance of sweetness, umami, and gentle bitterness.

• Traditional Kyusu Teapot
A classic Japanese side-handle teapot designed for brewing sencha. The shape allows precise pouring and optimal extraction of flavor from the tea leaves.

The Japanese Tea Experience

In Japan, tea is not only a drink but also a moment to pause. The process of brewing sencha—warming the teapot, steeping the leaves, and slowly pouring the tea—creates a calm ritual that encourages mindfulness and appreciation of flavor.

This set allows you to recreate that experience at home.

How to Brew

1. Add 3–5g of sencha leaves to the kyusu.
2. Pour 70–80°C water over the leaves.
3. Steep for about 1 minute.
4. Pour evenly into the cups and enjoy.

The same leaves can usually be brewed 2–3 times, revealing different layers of flavor.
