I can't remember the potter's name. He's pretty well known, but in my mind, he is unknown. :lol:

The important thing is the beauty of the chawan itself!

Yes, I have a few of his bowls. I'll try to use the others soon.

Fukujuen matcha in a Jay Strommen chawan. This is a nice, deep bowl which seems to increase the aroma of the matcha. Finally, I remembered his name!

Fukujuen shincha in onggi clay kyusu. Iron rich clay seems to bring out more depth in this tea.

Ryuouen shincha, 5g in 125ml onggi based clay. 60sec. 65º.
Shincha makes me feel a little sick. Does something to my gut.

His wares are so full of personality, distinct but always interesting piece by piece.

I've been mostly drinking cold-brewed sencha for a few days, along with cold-brewed green oolong, but this morning hot tea seems just right again, and some Tai Ping Hou Kui from Wing Hop Fung is on tap. It will be grandpa style in a Petr Novak Chawan, just need to pick one (my Seong-il pieces are each dedicated to oolongs).

Afternoon matcha using Hosuien and a guroseto chawan. This one has some age and I love the green against the black.

Enjoying An Ji Bai Cha from Norbu, deliciously floral, slightly fruity, delicately vegetal, returning the sense of summer to an overcast chilly morning.

O-Cha's Organic Oku Midori. On my second steeping. I like this one. It's a tad bit more astringent than I like (I'm not yet comfortable in my tea journey straying from the recommended steeping instructions; it takes me a while to stray from recipes/directions on anything), but the flavor is wonderful enough to make the astringency worth dealing with.

Nowadays I am taking Green drink in every morning. I purchased this drink from an online megastore ivlproducts.com. It helps in improving metabolism and reduces fat too. I think you should also try this healthy drink!
