Do you
keep a record of tea that you had?
What kind of tea is it? Where did you get
it? And how much? Does it have a good body? Do you like the aroma? How is the
tea color? ..and such.
I tried and did once in a while using my PC, but it didn’t
last long because I am not a PC person. I mean that I used to write
down my impression on the tea on a small notepad while drinking, and type it up
on my PC later. But I should've known that I’m not very well organized…
Today I
just got an Ochazuki Techo (lit: a tea-lover’s notebook) at a small tearoom in
Osaka. It is made just to take notes on tea. You can write how you like and what’s
it like. For some tea-geeks, this could be a good record and happy tea diary.
Personally,
I like the cover, especially the bottom part; “TEA LOVES YOU”. Can you see the
kettle that tea is been pouring to “V”? It’s cute, isn’t it? This “little
teapot, short and stout”, which reminds me of a song "I'm a little teapot", motivates me to open the notebook. How do you like it??
