What we liked

  • + Listed at 30 oz (900 ml) with a stainless steel infuser that keeps loose leaves out of the cup, a fit for a small group.
  • + The interior is enameled, which the listing states is meant to protect the pot from rusting, a plus for first-time cast iron owners.
  • + Handle wrapped in twine and an extra-wide, drip-proof spout are listed, easing pouring from a heavy cast iron body.

Trade-offs

  • - The listing recommends filling to about 24 oz (700 ml) when boiling, so the usable stovetop volume is smaller than the 30 oz total.
  • - Cast iron is heavy and the cherry blossom finish is decorative, so it suits slow tea sessions more than quick everyday brewing.
