Anyone know where I can purchase one of these?

Hey everyone!

Brand new to tea chat here. Personally I have never been too big into tea until just recently. My girlfriend and I had gone to a tea bar in New York and the woman there was making a tea in something like the following. However, I have searched all over the internet and could only find this picture. Does anyone know the proper name for something like this and where I would be able to purchase one? Thanks for any help you can offer!

Its called a tasting set. Here's one example:

That would be a competition tasting mug from a tasting set. They usually come with a cup/bowl and a spoon. They are used for tea tasting competitions. You might look for a gaiwan instead. Gaiwans are a bit more elegant, IMHO.
