The Tea Chronicles: Matcha Source

Matcha time! This Morning Matcha comes from Matcha Source. It is their classic grade matcha – one step below ceremonial grade – and it is tasty! I think me and Egg are getting used to the taste.

Also pictured are the tools (Dogu) of the trade: the Chasen (whisk), the Chashaku (bamboo scoop), and the Chawan (bowl). Not pictured is the sifter, used to break up the chunky powder. The Chasen and the Chashaku are carved from one piece of bamboo.

Kelley and I are learning every day! So much to digest, both literally and figuratively!
