It's been almost 20 years since Hario, a Tokyo-based glass manufacturer with a history going back to 1921, reinvented coffee-drinking with the launch of its V60 filter holder, which is also popular among Japan Trend Shop customers. Just a little before V60's 20th birthday, the company is giving that innovative accessory a boost, both in terms of function and appearance, with the Hario V60 Suiren Dripper.
Keeping the basic elements of the original V60 intact (the conical design, large opening, and spiral ribs), the Hario V60 Suiren Dripper adds a new level of versatility since it's now collapsible: instead of one piece, it comes in 14 (the dripper holder, the ring, and 12 ribs), which you can easily assemble yourself. This way, it's easier to store, allows for better flow of the water, and is more beautiful. Colorful too, since you can get optional ribs in transparent red, blue, yellow, green, purple, and white!
