My mum bought me a tin of expensive japanese green powder tea for ceremony
and I have no idea how to prepare it, how much to put for a cup and how to
drink it. can someone help please ?

thank you

The powered green tea is called "matcha".
Just go online and type "matcha tea" and you will be overwhelmed with info.
Skip all the ritual stuff and make matcha.

Or use this: "Preparation of the tea:
Cleanse the matcha tin and spoon with the silk cloth. This symbolizes the
cleansing of the host's thoughts and helps to attain full attention.
Afterwards put some hot water into the tea bowl and clean the bamboo brush.
Put the water into the waste water pot and clean the broom and tea bowl with
the linen cloth.
Now lift both the matcha tea container and the spoon and place 3 scoops per
person into the bowl. With the ladle or directly from the kettle add enough
water to whisk up a thick broth. Then add water until the tea is as thick as
pea soup. The remaining water in the ladle is put back into the kettle. "

You may use electric wisk to beat the matcha but use lowest speed.
Matcha is a very invigorating drink. Do not drink it before you go to bed (I
mean if you plan on gettin some sleep)

organic Oolong tea.

The company has always stuck to the operation tenet of "quality first,
consumers first and reputation first", upheld the entrepreneurship of

the best", and try to develop into an excellent example in Chinese tea
industry.

Good one, Lew. And speaking of which I'm into Silver Bud this am. This and
the Nannao are a little tricky, probably due to their youth. I'd say in 20
years they'd both be soft and plump. Light pulling is the way to go with
both, I think, using the Perin Params most likely.

Hey, BTW, the guy can't spell. You won't find me holding that against him.

Why is that "soft and plump" ring no tea connection in my mind?

I get it - you guys do drink black puerhs which I almost never drink. And
aged green puerhs are never (as far as my limited experience go) soft and
plump.
