🚌

1.15pm
Arrived at the terminal
터미널 도착

I didn't make a booking and the earliest ticket I could purchase was for 3pm
가장 빠른 차편은 3시라고해서
3시행 티켓 구입

1.30pm
I was eating snacks and hearing 1pm bus call, which I assume it got delayed
과자 먹고있는데 연착됐는지
1시행 버스 출발 콜이 들린다.

Oh!
Maybe I didn't have to wait til 3pm?
(오!!
3시까지 안 기다려도 되는건가!?)

I asked whether I could take the 1pm bus while showing my 3pm ticket. I was told no because the bus is full.

1시차편에
3시행 표 내밀면서

낑겨탈 수 있냐고 물어봤는데
매진으로 안된다고 한다...

So I waited til 3pm
그렇게 3시까지 기달렸다.

Maybe because I no longer find a busy life attractive?
바쁘게 돌아가는 삶이
더 이상 매력적으로 느껴지지 않아서일까??

The downtime didn't feel unpleasant.
기다리는 시간이
싫게 느껴지지 않았다.

Also there was WIFI
2hrs passed quick
while I was on my phone
그리고 와이파이 잘 터져서
핸드폰 하다보니 금방 3시가 됐다..

Another hot day in Melbourne over 30C/86F ☀️ Ice brewing (kōridashi, 氷出し) is a great way to brew premium sencha without making it bitter or astringent.

This is the easiest brewing method to bring out umami with the least effort (other than I wanna poke or swirl ice around time to time before it's ready 😒).

🧊 HOW TO Kōridashi 🧊

1. Add ice into your glass or teapot.
*Make sure your ice is not smelly.

2. Sprinkle high-quality Japanese sencha gently on top of the ice.

3. Let it brew ~

4. Today I used 10g for 4 ice cubes approx. 200ml. It took over an hour to brew half.

5. Tea is ready! ☺️🍵

Did you know some COVID-19 vaccine reactions are from anxiety, not the shots themselves?

It's natural to feel anxious. Yet, too much anxiety can destroy your life balance 🤹

I've created a guided meditation for people suffering from anxiety, fear, stress, and panic attack before getting the COVID-19 vaccine.

This guided meditation will make body & mind calmer right away.

Hello everyone! 🖐️ I ordered 5kg of butterfly pea flowers without realising how dried flowers can volume so much in 5kg!

Butterfly pea flower is a floral tisane originated from Southeast Asia that has been used for centuries. It has health benefits of uplifting moods, enhacing eye sights, nootropic, good for digestion, aiding weight loss, and more that are supported by scientific studies and references.

It's mostly known for colour changing characteristic from blue to pink, red, or purple. I mostly use this ingredient when I want to add colour changing characteristic in my tea recipes.

Japanese Tea Marathon Day 11 - Mie Review

Who's been having fun at Japanese Tea Marathon at Global Japanese Tea Association 国際日本茶協会?

I've been enjoying the event since the Day 1 and probably getting ready for an imaginary Japanese Tea Marathon exam ✍️🤣

I don't know. I could sit and chill, but I didn't feel like it. Here's a little summary for now. I will share a longer version if I get a permission to share 🍵

Did you know you can age green tea? During the Japanese Tea Marathon, Day 13 - Saitama, the tea farmer @ from with a histroy more than 200 years) highlighted Sayama Kaori cultivar for aging tea.

And I was like THAT'S MY PRECIOUS!!!!!
Precious is my tea plant who is currently under extreme stress due to the low light and winter weather in Melbourne. (Sorry, Precious! 😭)

I found a better place for Precious to grow. I am crossing my fingers my tea plant becomes healthier and happier!!! 🍵✨

Does lockdown increase creativity?

I am learning so much about Japanese tea. Yet, all the information was floating around my head without getting absorbed.

Studying backwards!

Once I looked more into prefectures of Japan. All the information became much easier to absorb ⚡

"Japan is divided into 9 regions, which are split into 47 smaller prefectures. Those regions are not formally specified; they do not have elected officials nor are they corporate bodies. However, the practice of ordering prefectures based on their geographic region is traditional."

🍵 Largest tea growing region – Shizuoka
🍵 Second largest tea growing region – Kagoshima
🐾Prefecture with the most dogs – Aichi

Do you have any tea study tips you wanna share?

Have you tried the gin made with gyokuro and tencha?

“KI NO TEA is a product created in collaboration with tea-grower and blender Hori-Shichimeien, founded in the Meiji era in 1879 and based in the famous Uji region to the south of Kyoto city. A number of super-premium Uji teas have been specially selected to form the heart of KI NO TEA.

Tencha and gyokuro provide intense aromas and depth of flavour with a wonderful sweetness that occurs naturally in the distillation of these superior teas. We use leaves harvested in the Okunoyama tea yard, dating back to the 14th century, and blend carefully with a secret botanical recipe used only in KI NO TEA.”

Is there something you wanna do, yet you haven't been able to actually do, publish, or produce?

I created this video to update Tea Creative 티 크리에이티브 cover page, then realised that function no longer exists.

Nowadays, I am organising my external drive.
It's crazy how many tea pictures, tea videos, tea work I kept only for myself even when I wanted to share with others.

Embrace your imperfection.
Perfectionism is an illusion.

[직접탐방] 천상의 이슬, 농차 : 효월 선생 구증구포 제다법 연수

“능히 이 한 방울로 천 잔을 대신할지어니 가히 천상의 이슬이로다”

하동군 악양면 덕기길.

초행인데다 수업하러 가는 학생이라 늦지 않아야 하니 새벽부터 서두른다. 무채색 하늘이 부연 봄기운 같이 부드럽다가 연산쯤 가니 차창에 빗방울이 제법 세게 듣기 시작한다. 악양에 도착하기까지 하늘은 내내 구증구포 제다법을 예고하는 것 같다. 무겁던 찻잎이 가벼워지고 부드럽게 손에서 미끄럽게 흘러내리고 어느 시점에서 또 무겁게 느껴짐이 반복되다가 아홉 번째 덖으며 ‘천상의 이슬’차의 모습을 갖추듯이, 비는 가늘게 세게 오락가락 멈춤과 갬을 반복하고, 결국 우리가 내린 곳은 지리산 자락 안개 위의 효월선생님 작업실이다. 자동차 소리에 나오신 두 분을 보며 雲上居人이라는 생각을 한다. 농차 제다실에서 밖을 바라보니 산허리에 감긴 안개가 지리산 자락을 휘어감아 흐르고 있다.
