- Noir Ceramic KATI Tea Cup with Infuser

I bought this Tea Forte Double-Walled Ceramic Kati Cup as a gift for my daughter, and she absolutely loves it. She drinks tea all day, and this cup helps keep her tea warm and her cup full while she’s at work. The removable infuser makes it easy to brew her favorite loose leaf teas, and the double-walled design feels sturdy and comfortable to hold. It’s a beautiful, practical cup that she uses every day.

Bought as a gift and I was pleasantly surprised with the quality and design. The recipient also loved the design and functionality of the cup. It’s a great buy for tea lovers.

Beautiful design. Love my tea steeped. The cup keeps the tea warm for a good amount of time. Would buy again.

I am an avid tea drinker and particular about the tea cup. This is the best cup I have ever used. It’s beautiful. It keeps the tea warm for a long time. Most important is that their customer service is especially good. I don’t think you will regret buying the tea cup.

This tea cup is very sturdy and beautiful. I love the fact that it’s functional and stable. It feels good in your hand and doesn’t tip easily. It is a good size and the lid doesn’t seem to tip and doesn’t seem to break like some of the others I love this and it is the second one I have had the other one lasted a long time and then I seem to have misplaced it. It never broke.

UPDATE: The company contacted me after I posted my negative/one-star review (see below), and generously offered to ship a replacement to me for free. I felt they were dismissive of my complaint about poor packaging causing breakage, but I took the risk and accepted the replacement. The replacement arrived undamaged (hallelujah), although they still only had a thin peice of cardbard between the heavy lid and hollow mug, which is probably why so many reviewers receive broken products. Anyway, I have been using the product regularly for a while and have upgraded my review to 4 stars. I love the color but, as others reported, half of the design is barely visible. I also love the shape and aesthetics of the mug's design. The mug looks and feels substantial, but I know from my first experience to treat it with kid gloves given that it is hollow and prone to breaking. That and the fact that it doesn't actually hold much liquid (the strainer takes up at least half of the height AND sits below the lip to accommodate the lid) are the primary reasons I gave this 4 stars instead of 5. If you like big mugs of tea, you'll probably be frustrated with this... if you make smaller cups at a time or use specialty teas (whole flowers, matcha, etc.), you'll probably love this. Despite the hollow center for insulation, I find that this does not keep liquids hot for very long, even with the (non-insulated) lid on. That's OK with me because it holds so little volume that it doesn't take long to drink, and I didn't expect ceramic and a very loose/uninsulated lid to hold in much heat in the first place. I think that the strainer is excellent because it is a VERY fine mesh and lets very little get through, and it is very easy to clean. Despite being a very thin metal, the strainer is quite sturdy and has not bent, dented, or rusted after many many uses (although it gets a lot very fine scratches inside from stirring). I also love the little loop on the stainer as it allows me to easily insert and remove it from its recessed position, and to hold it steady while pressing out excess water or sifting dry powder (like matcha tea). 100% of the matcha powder sifts through the strainer by the way. I also love the lid because it make this aesthetically pleasing mug even cuter, it is very thick, and it works wonderfully to hold tea bags or the strainer without making a mess. That's about all I can think of other than trying to make coffee in this. I used a fine espresso grind, so some of the grounds did manage to escape through fine mesh strainer, but much less so than I've experienced with other strainers. Therefore, I imagine you could easily use larger grinds with this quite well if you don't mind weaker, smaller cups of coffee. Overall, I would recommend this (although I wish it held more), because it is high quality and a joy to look at and use. Using it feels ceremonial, like you are treating yourself to something special. They just need to seriously reconsider how they ship given the thin barrier placed between the thick/heavy lid and the hollow/fragile mug during shipping so that it's less of a gamble whether you receive one unbroken. Since it doesn't insulate much anyway, I think the mug should be solid instead of hollow so that it is much less prone to breakage. ORIGINAL REVIEW: I'm so dissapointed! I read the reviews on this and the other colors/designs carefully and wanted it so bad but decided it was too pricey. After months and months or denying myself, I finally decided to take the plunge. However, as soon as I lifted this out of the shpping box, I knew it had arrived broken due to the sound of clinking glass. This was confirmed upon opening the box and seeing that it was broken into several peices at the top of the cup, as if the lid was too heavy and cracked the cup. In fact, both the shipping box and product box were not damaged. The product was wrapped in one layer of bubble wrap that was in tact. However, the inside of the product box has gouging and dents. There also was NO bubble wrap, cardboard, or any packaging material of any kind between the cup and the lid! They packed naked ceramic on top of naked ceramic. No wonder it broke! The manufacturer is to blame. I'm so disgusted.

This has become my go to office mug, the lid keeps my tea warm for longer. It’s beautiful.

This cup has a beautiful design and matches my electric kettle perfectly (from a different company). The infuser basket is well made with small holes to avoid loose tea from sifting through and making your drink gritty. The ceramic cup and cover keeps your tea hot while steeping. My only suggestion would be a design that integrates a silicon slip around the cup to allow you to hold it while hot, or sell a separate silicon sleeve that you can slide onto the cup.

I have been exploring infuser cups/mugs for a couple of weeks, and after a couple of false starts, I chose this one! Some folk said the tea leaves had bled through the strainer, however this was not the case. The mug is pretty to look at, the right size for a good drink and did keep it warm. I am very happy with all aspects of the mug and worth the money.

Bien pour la tisane ou le thé

Muy hermosa, excelente calidad. Doble pared, no quema las manos al usarla y mantiene la temperatura un poco más. Excelente como regalo

Je suis en train de déguster un rooibos dans cette tasse magnifique, arrivée bien emballée dans sa boîte, avec son joli filtre qui s'imbrique parfaitement sur le petit rebord intérieur et dont les trous minuscules n'ont laissé filtrer aucun débris malgré l'extrême finesse du rooibos. La tasse pèse agréablement lourd dans la main et ses parois sont chaudes mais en aucun cas brûlantes. La décoration est très jolie et fine (j'ai bien reçu les fleurs de cerisier), cet objet est tout autant utile que décoratif, je suis sincèrement ravie de mon achat et vous le recommande sans hésiter !

Si eres un amante del té de hoja suelta Esta taza es Perfecta y práctica Además de conservar bien la temperatura se ve refachera si me lo preguntas
