Come on then folks. Spill the beans (or leaves). What teas have you tried in these pots, and how does the pot change/effect the tea? Anyone give oolongs a try yet? Not many actual reviews yet. 

Re: Shigaraki Kyusu
So far I've tried putting hot water in Shigaraki and pour it out. The water tasted thicker and sweeter.
There is a no entry sign for tea leaves on top of my kyusu

*Bought it in their shop (which is much more expensive compared to their online store)
Re: Shigaraki Kyusu

Indeed the extra price of 100 bucks is quite a lot, but at least I get to choose them and have less worry about the postage or trouble at custom. Nearly everything is much more expensive in the store compared to their online store. I guess they have to include their cost for the shop in the gardens, staffs, office in malaysia and shipment.
Re: Shigaraki Kyusu
I ordered them from the site at the top of the month. They had just been on vacation.
Re: Shigaraki Kyusu
I just my package in the mail. I can't believe how amazing they are. I will post pictures when I get a chance.
