Shou pu’er on a tea scoop next to a white porcelain tea vessel. Beneath the tea towel is part of a book the word “Dublin” is visible.

Only tea service I managed during our whirlwind tour of Ireland, second to last day in Dublin.

A shiboridashi with a tuocha of pu’er perched on top. A mug of flowers sits behind it.

A cup of dark tea, a shiboridashi, & a mug of flowers

Ah, shou pu’er, you never steer me wrong! This tiny-but-mighty tuocha can stand up to the most mediocre water & still deliver bittersweet earthy love. (Here’s a better shiboridashi view, @mismatched.bsky.social )

Tea fixings

The advantage to bringing all your tea fixings on a trip is you are never surprised by what's available in the hotel or AirBNB. The only question is one of space, tea or clarinet?
