After looking at that picture I can only think of one question.

Do you have superpowers yet?

:lol: Where did you get those superpowers, anyway?

So, if matcha gives you superpowers, I have to wonder what this Kame gyokuro a la O-Cha just gave me????? :arrow:

Although I like very much (euphemism) gyokuro, no tea is as intense for me as koicha.

Does anyone ever actually work in that place? I have noticed a dramatic decline in my junk mail ever since you became interested in tea.

I put the sieve directly into the warmed chawan and eliminate the need for the aluminum foil ... only use the foil when I am doing lines of matcha.

What can I say? I have the power to reduce the flow of junk mail to people who send me tea! :lol:

I would do that, but so far I prefer to have the powder ready when I preheat the chawan and soak the chasen.

Were matcha not so green I think the DEA would be storming your office in the morning.
