In the US I recommend Harney & Sons (online) and they have locations in NJ and NY.

I've been preparing iced matcha lately - think I'll keep doing this while it's hot!

Harney & Sons is fantastic. They often give samples with your orders. Their Tower of London is a magnificent tea. It can please both purists and newbies alike. It's a great tea to widen the palates of those who tend to drink heavily flavored or sweetened teas. Originally Posted by vicmaldo

Yeah, it's more difficult when it's cold though.

Got a new tea pitcher and a tea table today. I am celebrating with a pot of Long Jin / Dragon well.

Jokes aside, if you know anything about these, I'd love to know. Apart from it being a rice porcelain cup, I know nothing.
I have a set of 4, and they are pretty large for a chinese cup, 100 ml.Olav Vittfarne and ffourteen like this.

Nice cup and it does seem pretty big actually. I like the translucent flakes in the side. The Chinese characters there simply say "China", pronounced kind of like "jewn gwah". Sorry it doesn't say ming dynasty!
