Matcha bowl Y-1651 flow Yamakiikai Mino ware Kenta Tianmu (japan import)

Much more beautiful than the pictures show. Subtlety in the glaze and overall shape. Holds heat really well. A bit narrow for whisking, but with a bit more wrist action absolutely fine.

I love this bowl! Very good quality.

Très joli bol. La largeur de la bande en haut est un peu plus fine que sur l'image mais ça n'altère en rien l'esthétisme du produit. Je pensais par contre que c'était du gré et non de la céramique. De toute façons je suis ravie de cet achat.

No es igual al de la foto y es mas grande de lo que esperaba pero igual esta bien.

Nice quality but prettier in photo.

I ordered this bowl because I have a new Matcha addiction and I decided it was about time I start collecting some supplies. This bowl is the perfect size ( about 4.5 inches) for whisking Matcha. The sides are also high enough that vigorous whisking doesn't slosh it out ( well it COULD if you were really whisking like crazy with a more filled bowl LOL!) The glaze is smooth and has what I think is the right amount of shine. The bowl also has a nice thickness and weight, it just feels good! The shape of the bowl is a little different than the picture on the listing but, I don't mind as it is still beautiful. I've added pictures to show off my new bowl :) I would have loved a little more pattern on my mine, and I may order again ( my hubby needs one) to try and get one with such. But for now I am VERY happy with this one and I feel the price was super reasonable for a Matcha Bowl made in Japan and Imported.

I have to admit that while I enjoy Matcha, my main motivation in developing my new daily cup a day habit was for the reported health benefits. Matcha is said to have over 130 times the main cancer fighting component, EGCG catechin. Without sounding pretentious, I believe that part of the enjoyment as well as health benefit comes from the small ritualistic way you consume things and for that using a beautiful container adds to the visceral pleasure and spiritual component. This is a beautiful bowl which is not done justice to by the photo. The shape is also helpful in mixing your matcha with a nice wide but not too big mouth. The glaze is high quality with a wonderful luster that lends an earthy, substantial quality. Very happy with the purchase and highly recommended.
