    Course I did! When have you even known me to stay off the grass if the sign says that's what must be done?!

    Looking forward to your matcha pics!
    That's about the size I'd expect for a pot like that - perfect for when you're only making for yourself!

    I'm away over the weekend, so unless I take them tomorrow, I might not post the pics until Tuesday or so.

    After a couple less than thrilling small tuos (too young, but I still wanted to sample them so I can monitor the development) I decided I needed a treat, so today I opened a CNNP 2003 cake.

    Name: 2003 CNNP front wrapper.jpg Views: 127 Size: 67.1 KB
    Front label. There was nothing on the back.

    Name: 2003 CNNP inner wrapper.jpg Views: 131 Size: 61.7 KB
    Inner label. Quite possibly the worst company name ever?

    Name: 2003 CNNP cake label.jpg Views: 135 Size: 63.2 KB
    Cake label, it was actually not imbedded.

    Tea cake:
    The cake is glossy looking, with a clean fresh smell. The tea cake seems homogenous, with fairly similar material throughout the cake. The aroma is a fresh forest, hay-like, very pleasing.

    Name: 2003 CNNP brewed.jpg Views: 138 Size: 51.7 KB

    Aroma: Earthy, mossy, yet fresh.
    Color: Reddish tint
    Taste: Fresh, smooth and earthy, good mouthfeel, mouth-watering. No bitterness at all. Very pleasant.
    Aftertaste: Lastinging aftertaste, with good sweetness.

    I'm glad I chose this cake today, it was very pleasing. Having my second pot as I write this, it is thoroughly enjoyable.

    Love those cakes of Tea. They look like they could just be eaten instead of broken up and thrown in hot water .
