My positive experience with the Kinto insulated water bottle sparked my curiosity about this Japanese brand. This led me to discover a truly remarkable glass teapot: the Kinto Unitea One Touch. This teapot stands out with several unique features that differentiate it from other glass teapots I’ve encountered.

Exploring the Design of the Kinto Teapot

Offered in both 720 ml and 460 ml sizes, this teapot boasts a design that is as practical as it is elegant. One of its standout features is the unique system that holds the tea during the infusion process. Unlike traditional teapots, the Kinto doesn’t rely on a basket system to brew tea. This means that the tea leaves aren’t “compacted” during infusion, as they often are with Bodum pourers, for instance. This allows for a more effective infusion and also makes the teapot easier to clean, thanks to its wide opening. You can effortlessly insert a sponge for a thorough clean. Plus, it’s dishwasher-safe and its clever design prevents water retention, eliminating the risk of unsightly streaks.

Indeed, the generous opening of this teapot enables it to double as a pourer for the Hario V60. This means that with this versatile Kinto, you get a convenient 2-in-1 system for brewing either tea or coffee (assuming you have a V60 or a similar device).

With its broad opening, filling and cleaning become a breeze, and it’s even dishwasher-friendly for your convenience.

Wrapping It Up

As an avid fan of both tea and coffee, I’m absolutely thrilled with my recent purchase. This versatile jug is perfect for brewing V60 coffee and various types of tea, which I frequently enjoy on-the-go in my insulated flask. It’s a delightful addition to my daily routine, especially when I’m heading to work.

After careful consideration, I’ve joyfully settled on a perfect score of 5/5 for this.

Rating: 5 out of 5.
