Name: Glass One-Cup Teapot (300ml)
Brand: Jing Tea
Type: Glass teapot
Review: Traditionalists who eschew modern tea infusers rejoice: Here is a functional, well-designed, yet beautiful teapot that should suit you well.
This glass teapot is just the right size for a single cup of tea (it can also be used for gong-fu style service, though I think it a little big for that). It is crystal-clear, with a wide spout and squat body.
It is easy to use, too: A wire coil extends through the spout to catch tea leaves such that an additional strainer is not necessary (although some very small leaves/particles may slip through). The spout is not prone to clogging, which is great for quickly decanting tea.
Many small teapots have a small “airhole” on the lid-handle. This is supposed to allow for easy pouring of the tea, but it is also easy to get a steam-burn when grabbing the lid-handle. This teapot’s airhole is located on the lid itself, making the lid-handle much more accessible.
Recommendation: This teapot is great for people who like to infuse one cup of tea at a time. Its design would make it a great gift for tea newbies, too!

Hi Lainie,
I really like this small teapot. It is great for some Oolong or green tea.

As long as you like the flavor of your tea in glass, this is a pretty good idea to go without the fuss and muss of infusers and the like. It’s keeping things simple. –Teaternity
