... perhaps not. But of the three, you are the closest.

That would be very cool, but not a teaware SOP.

That would be an OTTI or NOTTI, in fact we have done teas from Kyushu! That would be very doable! But not "something new" nor a teaware SOP.

Fascinating ... perhaps one day!
Remember, you have already guessed correctly that "Kyusu" is the teaware.

"Kyusu" being a Japanese term implies Japan as the potential origin. However many non-Japanese make kyusu.
How about maybe Southeast Asia origins here?

If we can't get an answer as to "what" it will be, how about an clue as to "when"?

I will work on this ... it is relatively imminent, but there is always at least a 3 day official prior notification for SOPs ... this has not occurred.

No, it is not. However maybe in the future ...
