Took a Video of Matcha Tea

Last Sunday,I met my friend Shige and his wife Yoshiko to learn about how to prepare matcha tea from her.

Yoshiko is currently studying Japanese tea ceremony called “Sado” or “Cha-no-yu “.
Of course she knows how to prepare tasty matcha tea.

She is great teacher.

There are two types of preparation of matcha tea: koicha (“thick tea”) and usucha (“thin tea”).
May be usucha is more popular than koicha.

She taught me both.

Shige took a video of “how to prepare matcha tea” and Toku and me are editing it now.

We will upload  this video after open AKIBA MART  ! Please wait!

Be that as it may,
Shige and Yoshiko !  Thanks a lot for helping me !
Love you always !

If you want to know how to prepare tasty matcha tea now, please refer this page “How To Prepare Matcha”.

DAI-SEIKOU!! (Big success!!) Yoshiko and Shige and me

Tea Incense Burner (Cha Kouro)

Have you heard of an item called Tea Incense Burner (Cha Kouro)?

Yesterday, I went to Odaiba. Odaiba is located in bay area of Tokyo, which is famous for dating spot. Ah, don’t ask whether I went there for dating. Odaiba is also a good place for shopping where there are many shops and good to find out cool stuffs.

In one of the shop in Odaiba, I found a good tea incense burner (in Japanese it is called “Cha Kouro”). I knew that there is such thing, but I’ve never tried it. So I purchased one for my home to have a try. Burner is very simple, it has a little tray to put the tea on and a little space underneath the tray to put a candle. The way it works is same as aroma oil burner, but the tray is little more larger and shallow.
