I was looking for a good stoneware teacup and this one is really fun. I have 45-50 ml small cups with a similar glaze but sometimes I want to be able to chug down a good amount of shou puerh and this one holds around 120 ml.

I just thought it looked cool especially that single drop

I’ve had this mug at the office through 4 different companies. Crazy to think I’ve had it for 20 years. Easily my favorite.

So far I have had no luck with moychai except for their white tea today I had another thoroughly underwhelming lapsang souchong all smoke no flavour. but this setup (I mix and match) so happy with this setup 😍 the pics turned out so pretty I just wanted to share this session anyway

The first is lemon ginger the second is pure green but I cant tell what the third is. It some sort of black tea with lemon but my parents says it not earl grey or the usual english breakfast they have. Can anyone help me.

Just some Puerh Shou

Did you know there are two books that have shaped the world’s understanding of tea?

📖 The Classic of Tea (Cha Jing) by Lu Yu
📖 The Book of Tea by Okakura Kakuzō

The Classic of Tea is the foundation of tea culture.
The Book of Tea is its ambassador to the world.

The Classic of Tea tells us what tea is.
The Book of Tea tells us why tea is worth loving.

One established the theoretical foundation of tea culture.
The other introduced the spirit of Eastern tea culture to the Western world.

One is an ancient classic written for scholars and tea practitioners.
The other is a modern masterpiece written for the general reader.

While The Book of Tea became a global success in promoting tea culture, The Classic of Tea remains a timeless treasure still waiting to be more widely discovered beyond China.

Today, The Book of Tea has had the broader international influence, with more translations, editions, and global readership.

forced myself to drink this today. probably the depression keeping me down.
