I now pronounce you Tea and Cup! Mazel Tov!

(The happy couple.)

Found a dynamite Japanese green tea, special yet easy to access and gets lots of, and introduced it to my Ringware Yunomi ala' Octopus last night and let's just say they were made for each-other. The proud parents of the tea are Buddha Teas and the proud parent of the cup is Ringware Pottery.
This will not be an open-marriage. This tea has so many strongly pronounced flavors that I promise the cup it will never share its capabilities to hold tea with any other green. Nope! Not even something similar, not even a basic ryokucha, or a matcha, nothing! This tea with this cup, wedded and bedded and all for the best, (and as we Jews say) 'Dayenu!'

The tea of which I speak will get its own blog write-up since it deserves it and is so totally kick-ass, so this is just a short preview.

( First brew after the nup's!)

I am talking here of Buddha Teas 'Matcha Yuzu Ryokucha'. Got it? So go get some if you like a vibrant green tea, matcha mixed with lovely verdant green pieces of ryokucha and are interested in a little dash of something rather citrus-y from the Japanese fruit called Yuzu.

The marriage was done with the help of my Takaname Kyusu of course, and was sealed with many steeps which left this human wedding guest having to pee every ten minutes for the next three hours. Worth it! (Even if it did interrupt  Dr. Who to my families constant consternation.)
