Mountain Dripper's Blazing Black
With its aesthetics and beautiful coffee it produces, Torch Mountain dripper has always been our and our customers' favourite. Now we have a difficult choice-- they released a black one.
The 1-2 cup version of the Donut Dripper, the slim, stylish form allows the coffee to be perfectly layered and shaped to extract the best possible flavor. The finely-crafted, porcelain dripper features special internal ribs which guide the flow of water through the coffee grains. The large outlet hole ensures the optimum rate of flow for consistently smooth, full-flavoured, fresh-tasting coffee.
Each Torch dripper set features an exquisite Japanese Mino Yaki style porcelain dripper with a urethane coated white ash base.

Customer Questions
Question: What's the different between the Donut Dripper and the Mountain Dripper?
Answer: Donut dripper takes up to 4 cups and created for dark roasted beans which is the main trend in Japanese coffee beans. It has more height than that Mountain so more beans hit the coffee grounds, giving the coffee a more heavy taste balance, which again works very well with dark roasted beans.
The Mountain Dripper takes up to 2 cups created with the Donut in mind but designed more for Third wave / Western coffee bean culture with hints of acidity and fruitiness. Overall it drips slightly faster than the Donut and produces a more "clean" taste pallet great for light-medium roasted beans.
Question: How does the dripper align with the wooden base? Does it have ridges for the dripper to be stable?
Answer: The porcelain dripper just sits lightly on top of the wooden base. It does not have any ridges. Since the wooden base and ceramic drippers are each individually hand made, they are not "perfectly" constructed and you may need to find the "right spot" for the dripper to sit on the base. Personally, our team at Kurasu usually don't have any issues of the dripper titling for example, while extracting coffee.
Question: Can Kalita wave filters be used in the Torch Mountain Dripper?
Answer: Yes! Kalita wave filters #155 can in used with the Mountain Dripper.

About Yamato Toujiki
Arita, one of the most prestigious pottery producing regions of Japan, has been playing a fundamental role in providing trusty products to support Japanese culinary culture for more than 400 years. Among the manufacturers we met in Arita, Yamato Toujiki is one that was flexible and open to new designs and ideas, while still embracing traditional techniques.
The craftspeople there are truly meticulous in their work, not overlooking even the slightest difference in shape and carefully finishing each piece one by one.
As we went though countless prototypes, their professional inputs such as “this thickness tends to deform after firing” or “the angle of this curve could be adjusted a little more” has given us many new perspectives to give the design we envisioned an actual shape.
The precision in the craftspeople’s work we witnessed on our visit to Arita was truly remarkable. How they used potter’s wheel so naturally like breathing, and how a beautiful shape emerges from it- the moment we saw it, we realized that we are not just making something but also passing on this culture of the art.
Another thing that stuck with us was the atmosphere of the workshop. It was quiet but full of energy at the same time, the air filled with history and a proud craftspersonship.
“You never know until it comes out of the oven” they said- that’s why they treat each and every piece with such attention and precision, making adjustment along the way as needed. In their such work ethics we saw a shared sense of pursuing the ideal with our product designing process.
Kyoto Series is a product born through the hands of such craftspeople- it would be our pleasure if you could feel the warmth of human touch and their stories as you sip.
