Olympic Yixing

by cane » Jul 1st, '08, 09:54

With InsanityLater's post about Olympic pu'erh, I did some exploring around their site and found another amusing tea item...

I didnt see this posted anywhere else on teachat, but if I missed it, I apologize.

It looks like they have official Olympic Yixing teaware as well...

Bump for where to buy. Nothing says teaware like a politically charged sporting event.

Your guess is as good as mine, the olympic site seems to only display what licensed merchandise is available, not where to purchase it.
I have been keeping an eye out and will let you know what I turn up!
