Step into the world of Japanese tea, where every cup is a moment of mindfulness. 🍵✨

From the tranquil art of the tea ceremony to the vibrant flavors of Sencha and Matcha, Japan’s tea culture invites us to slow down, savor the present, and find beauty in simplicity.

“Drink your tea slowly and reverently, as if it is the axis on which the world earth revolves.” – Okakura Kakuzo

Happy National Tea Day 🍃

Today I chose ripe Pu’er - a small brick tea, carefully fermented in Yunnan’s mountains. A tea of patience, place, and quiet depth.

Tea has many stories. Some celebrated, others overlooked.

This is one worth remembering....

🌱 Enjoy the bold, smooth taste of aged Puerh tea. Perfect for digestion and relaxation. #HealthyTea #TeaCulture

Scones: The ultimate food controversy. ☕🍓

I used to be Team Devon (Cream First)—until yesterday, when I tried Cornish style (Jam First). Turns out, Cornish style is better because you actually get to taste the fruity tartness longer. Who knew?

Are you #TeamDevon (Cream First) or #TeamCornwall (Jam First)? Or just here for the tea? ☕

Sorry for not responding! “Where do you get your tea?” short circuits my brain. It’s a complex ongoing adventure. I’ve bought tea from several dozen online sellers, half as many little shops in various cities. Beyond that are teas acquired by trade & gift from other tea heads. Jtea? They’re great! But, there is no one place where one can buy tea— many teas will enter your life but once never to be seen again. #tea #teaculture #teaPosting

I wonder if anyone has studied the microbiota of the thousands of varieties of teas? We do so many curious things to age, ferment, process and brew— I wonder what it all produces? #teaculture #tea #microecology #microbiology #fermentation

When cold air dries your nose the perfect tea is Liu An. It also called “basket tea” as the compressed cakes are stored in bamboo baskets. This gives it a richness and a touch of the same mouthfeel as after a cough drop. The aroma is floral and a little earthy— there is something about it like honey. Today I’m enjoying some of my 2014 stash— it has grown perfectly mellow and I will have my husband and the role playing club try it too! #teaculture #tea #teaPosting #liuAn

It’s no so bad to work on a Saturday when you have good tea! This is an oolong from 2013 and it has become very fragrant the aroma is a bit better than the taste it may have aged a few years past peak— although I love it when oolongs develop that sweet aroma! #teaCulture #teaPosting #tea #oolong
