Iga-yaki Pottery and Its Unique Clay
- Rich Natural Resources
Iga-yaki developed thanks to Iga's high-quality clay and red pine forests, providing ideal materials and fuel for pottery since the Kamakura period. - Why Iga Clay is Special
Iga clay, from 4-million-year-old organic-rich soil layers, forms tiny pores when fired, creating 'breathing clay.' This enhances heat retention and far-infrared effects, cooking food evenly and keeping it warm. Its durability makes it Japan's only domestic clay suitable for heat-resistant donabe, inspiring Nagatani-en's Kamado-san and other innovative cookware.
Nagatani-en's Kamado-san Donabe Clay Pot is the ultimate tool for cooking rice, stews, braises, and hot-pots. Handcrafted over 2 weeks, this pot is made using soil unique to the Iga Region in Japan and glazed with a high far-infrared effect to help food cook evenly and come out soft and fluffy.
