Tea Set Accessory 1: Tea Container

Posted by CS

halo.... since the good feedbacks on the last post about the tea, seems like a lot of old fashion guy like me out there.... so i will post more on the tea related stuff...

I still remember, I am being influenced by my grandpa about the tea. Tea become part of his life. Every morning, he will get himself a pot of tea and enjoy it before breakfast. He will get himself the same one for the dinner as well. I love to have tea together with him... But he no longer with us...

Initially, I thought the more "thick" the tea, the better it is. But I was wrong... If you keep the tea leave in the water tooo long. The tea become too "think" ("Kao in hokkien"), and it is not good.



So you need to get all the tea out from the pot after couples of minutes. Dun keep it too long within. That's the reason, I get myself a new toy: "Tea Container". I don't know how to call this, may be you can help.



This is the pot I used to keep the tea out from the pot. This will help to maintain the quality of the tea you have.

I will get myself another "toy" soon, which is the tea leave filter. What is that for? Stay tune when I had one.....

Lim Teh (Drink Tea)

Posted by CS

I can't denined that I am old fashion guy, I like all kind of traditional stuff. Tea is one of my favourite.

Ya, tea is not only for old folks, but not many youngster like it. What I mean is chinese tea...

But I like it so much, it makes me feel calm. If I have something to think of, or something to decide, I will get myself some tea, while having it, it helps me feel relax and will help to flush out everything stuck in my mind.

And it helps me to think it in a better way and leads to a better decision. But I am not rely on those tea all the time...

But it is a good way for me to relax, after the whole day of heavy works, tired in term of physical and mentally...

I always wanted to have my own tea set, and comfortable table set at the balcony, having a good senery with a cup of tea on ur hand...

Imagine it.... wat a life..... imagine it again... is that amazing?!!

okok.. back to real life........

This is my tea set.... "lao ia" one.....



I am not expert in the tea drinking as well as tea serving. The procedure of serving, type of tea leaves, tea of pot, taste of different tea, and many more I need to learn.

I need to learn the correct way of serving and know how to appreciate those tea rather than "swallow" them into my stomach... wasting them...

I will blog more about the "Lim Teh" stuff here while I am learning on this.. If you are tea lover too, tell me and teach me, we can have some disccusion there.
