GNOME BREW

The little guy sits on my mug rim and holds just enough leaves for one cup, no mess. Filling him through the hat opening is easier than I expected and he's become my favorite part of the morning.

The hat comes off easily and I can fit a decent spoonful of loose leaves inside, which surprised me for something this small. It sits in my mug without tipping and the tea comes out clean. Genuinely charming little thing.

It's a fun little infuser, and the removable hat makes loading tea leaves easy enough to do one-handed. The only tiny gripe is the hat sits a bit loose when it's on, but for the whimsy factor it's worth it.
