    The Angel's Share

    This is a borrowed concept from the world of aging spirits, but very applicable to tea. In making tea gong-fu style the Angel’s share is the tea that is consistently poured over the yixing pot. Today I was also sharing

    The Ska Polka of Tea

    This little tuocha was brought to you by the year 1990. No brand affiliation. I can taste the dirty, green plaid and the wallet chains. Tastes like youth, but 30(!) years later. It tastes great, and even better shared. The

    Dancong Peaches, No Cream

    A beautiful tea in a beautiful pot. This session was an ode to spring on many levels: An antique yixing pot that is the living incarnation of the spring of 1952; A 2019 spring dancong tea that is the embodiment

    Old, Stale TGY

    This tea was a little treat waiting for me in a treasured tea container that I hadn’t seen in a while. I think the sounds of this container come through quite nicely, though briefly. The cup sound is also a

    One of my favorite books is an old instructional book on how to prepare tea for the Japanese Tea Ceremony. It is called (roughly translated), Knowing the Way of Tea or お茶の道しるべ. Today I prepared some matcha with that book
