Souvenirs From Tokyo #1

The best holidays I've ever had were in Tokyo. I have been there twice and I can't describe in words how amazing it was...

One of the things we brought back from our most recent trip was tea from a fancy tea shop down the road from where we were staying. This is a blend of green tea, matcha and roasted brown rice. I love it because the flavour changes over time. The first cup from the teapot tastes bright and green from the matcha. As it steeps in the pot, the taste changes and later cups are mellower and nuttier from the brown rice.

























The little teacup is from a small shop in Shimokitazawa. The wood tray is from Muji.
