A brew to buzz about.
This is a little coffee kettle short and stout, here is its beechwood handle, here is its spout. We don’t often find coffee pots this centerpiece-worthy but this Japanese minimalist design is begging for title role. Made from extra-sturdy chrome stainless steel, it can be used confidently on gas, electric, or induction ranges (note: it doesn’t shout when steamed up but does make 4 piping hot cups of coffee).

Great kettle
Easy to store, easy to use, also really nice colors + style. Pours very nicely and the handle has a nice grip. Would recommend this kettle to anyone looking for a new one!
Beautiful Japanese Craftsmanship
So happy! I love this kettle.
I was looking at Hario but they are making their kettles in China. This kettle is made in Japan and the difference is clear. Well balanced and comfortable to pour- a must for pour-over coffee. It's truly a pleasure to use and looks beautiful displayed on my stove.
