Thanks to my good fortune in landing my first magazine job, I received an opportunity to review a truly unique and wonderful piece of tea equipment last week: California Tea House's Sleek Steep Teapot.

Sleek certainly is the word for it: It's a beautiful, elegant piece that matches any dining room or kitchen set. And how about ease of use, you wonder? It's incredibly simple: Add your loose leaf tea, add your water, let it steep for the recommended amount of time, and then the magic happens. Lift the two-cup teapot, place it over your mug or cup, and just lightly press a spot on the underside of the teapot: the tea strains itself right into your mug!

Clean-up has never been easier, either. This teapot is dishwasher safe, but it's remarkably easy to clean by hand, too, if you want to re-use it immediately, like I did!  

The California Tea House Sleek Steep Teapot would be a wonderful gift for a tea aficionado, or even for a tea newbie who has never tried loose leaf tea before!  Christmas is coming, so be sure to put this item on your wishlist!
