About Nosaka Rough Clay Oxidation Firing by Tozo Watanabe

This page introduces Tozo Watanabe's "Nosaka Rough Clay Oxidation Firing" teaware, made from a clay called Nosaka and fired by oxidation.

Effect on taste

This clay enhances the aftertaste (richness and finish), but its strongest effect is on the body, giving tea a very full feel, with breadth across the palate and a soft, airy quality.

Recommended teas: Japanese tea, Pu-erh, white tea, Phoenix Dan Cong oolong, Anxi oolong and Wuyi oolong.
These are just examples. This clay works well with all types of tea, including those not listed above.
