Here's what you get:
- One 13.5 oz double-walled glass teapot with stainless steel spiral spring filter
Time spent living in Asia's mountain monasteries and adopting the ways of the monastic lifestyle taught the Five Mountains founders about, among other things, sacred tea traditions. They now share their expertise and love of organic, sustainably-harvested teas with the world.
Once your order is processed your product will be ground shipped to you. You will receive an email from Gilt Taste notifying you of your ship date.
The Architecture of Tea
Influenced by teahouse architecture, Five Mountains modeled this glass teapot after stupas found in Indian temples. The ancient spherical structure held Buddhist relics and its rounded shape conjures a sense of nirvana for Jeff McCloud, a Five Mountain co-founder. Two layers of hand-blown glass form the teapot’s dome shape, which improves the steeping process. With water too hot, tea won’t steep correctly, but this double-walled container keeps the tea’s temperature stable inside. Even for cool drinks, like iced teas or cold sake, this glass teapot maintains a steady temperature for easy sipping.
