Tea pots are cool, especially glass ones with chrome bits on.
Simply drop your loose leaf tea into the top and add water. The leaves unfurl in the filter and your brew takes shape right in front of your eyes...excellent. When you're done you can press the filter down and the tea stops brewing - making this pot fantastic for controlling how strong you like it.
These 500ml Bodum Assam tea presses make just enough for one and a bit - the only way to drink tea!
