KOGU Compact Leaf Scoop
A very small tea tool with a particularly neat place to live. KOGU shaped this curved stainless-steel scoop so it can sit on the inner lid of compatible KOGU tea caddies instead of disappearing into a drawer between uses.
A level scoop holds approximately 5 g of sencha. Treat that as a convenient reference rather than a universal tea recipe—different leaves occupy volume differently.
Why this shape?
- Compact: only 6.5 cm long.
- Caddy-friendly: designed to store with compatible KOGU tea canisters.
- Approx. 5 g sencha reference: useful for everyday portioning.
- Dishwasher safe: one-piece 18-8 stainless steel.
