The Glass Teapot 'Finn' holds 0.9 l. It comes with its lid and a stainless steel micro-filter, which holds back the leaves during infusion. Its transparent wall lets you watch the leaves unfurl and the colour of the liquor deepen, minute by minute.

Which teas?

Glass has no taste of its own: it does not retain aromas, and the teapot suits every tea as well as herbal infusions. It shows off teas whose leaves you love to watch, such as the silver buds of Yin Zhen, as well as herbal infusions in bright colours. Its 0.9 l capacity serves several cups, for a moment to share.

How do I use it?

• Place the leaves in the stainless steel micro-filter, using the dose indicated on the tea's product page.
• Pour in water at the recommended temperature, heated for example in a kettle.
• Put on the lid and follow the infusion by eye, the colour of the liquor shows it.
• Remove the filter at the end of the steeping time, then serve.

The transparent wall is easy to clean. To compare the Glass Teapot 'Finn' with cast iron or porcelain teapots, see our teapots section and our guide to choosing a teapot.
