Tea canisters

Mini washi tea canisters

Now that they have their tea leaves, the tea lover needs somewhere to put them. Tea canisters to the rescue! Available are lovely washi paper designs, sleek silver, and cute daruma. You can also go the ceramic route with different-sized jars

Hot water thermometer

Pee-Pee Boy clay figurines

Making a tasty pot of tea requires water at just the right temperature. But how do you know when it's hot enough? Pee-Pee Boy can help. It's a kind of tea pet, a clay figurine kept as both good luck and a way to measure the temperature of water. Such figurines may date back as far the Tang dynasty (618–906 CE), making them the world's first thermometers.

While tea pets come in various forms, one of the most popular is Pee-Pee Boy. The figure emits long stream out of his, well, pee-pee hole when poured over with water hot enough for tea. Check him out in action!

Matcha-making items

Bamboo whisk for matcha

 

Making matcha is a whole other ballgame. Give them the tools they need with a bamboo whisk, spoon, and powder

Tea-scented candles

Baisun lychee red tea candles

There's nothing more fragrant than a fresh cup of tea — except for maybe tea-scented candles from Baisun. Not only are the candles soy-based and hand poured, they're created by a small, AAPI-owned business.
