Notice

The surface is coated with an antirust oxide layer using the traditional technique called kama-yaki (high temperature baking treatment), but as it is cast iron, rust may occur due to moisture and humidity.

DESCRIPTION

The word Matsukaze is used in the world of the tea ceremony.
It is said to describe the sound of boiling water in a tea ceremony kettle.
If you listen carefully, you can hear a sizzling sound as the water in the iron kettle boils.
We named it Matsukaze, imagining that our ancestors who enjoyed tea in Japan may have heard the same sound in the past.

We aimed to create a tetsubin that would fit in well with both Japanese and Western tetsubin with its flat design.

We are conscious of designing the tetsubin with an emphasis on ease of pouring. The angle of the spout was designed to minimize the angle of tilting when pouring hot water.
The shape of the tip of the spout has also been modified to allow the water to drain more easily than in a conventional tetsubin.

The movable handle makes it easy to carry and store.

Although this is unusual in the design of tetsubin, this piece has a steam hole in the lid for greater practicality. This design allows water to flow out more easily when pouring.

Wipe off the excess water around the lid and other parts well, as discoloration and rusting can easily occur.
Please note that cooking near this pot may result in oil stains and discoloration due to oil splashes.
If the gas flame reaches the body of the pot, the part is likely to discolor, so be careful not to increase the heat too much.
Used over an open flame, the base will gradually turn white.

To make tea and coffee great

The water boiled in Nambu iron kettle tastes mellow and sweet even when drunk straight.

This is due to the effect of iron leaching into the hot water, but in order for the iron to leach out, the inside cannot be enameled or otherwise treated, and rust is liable to occur.

Nambu ironware is baked using the traditional technique called kama-yaki to produce an oxide layer on the surface. It leads to "rust resistance" and "water quality improvement" and makes tea and coffee taste better.
