Lately, I have found myself getting nice tea cups to drink my tea from. I was wondering what everyone else uses. I don't have pictures of my latest acquisitions right now but will post them later.
What tea cups do you drink from?

Standard issue zisha-on-the-outside, white ceramic-on-the-inside, tasting cup + aroma cup! The classics die hard.

Here are my cups. $24
Where are the handles?
My wife and I drink out of mugs big enough to bathe in, it's more about volume as far as the vessels themselves go.
pu out of either 25ml or 40ml white porcelain, other stuff out of slightly bigger blue tea bowls.
These gong fu brewers convinced me to use one of these.
Still, I'm not as bad as Hobbes.

No handles. If the tea is too hot you shouldn't be drinking it. These are great for sencha.I grab them on the rim. They hold about 7 ozs.

I might be thirsty still after one of these.Still, I'm not as bad as Hobbes.
this is my tea mug, I like it but it isn't very practical. I ordered a clear mug that should be at my house in a few days. I decided to go clear for two reasons
A. I want to start making flowering tea
B. the orange mug screws with my judge of the color of my tea

I've been waiting for this beauty, and it arrived in today's mail. The two photos in the upper row are without coffee; the two photos in the lower row are with coffee.
I couldn't resist!!

Actually, that's Hobbes' "fair cup".
For a great presentation, make it in a wine glass.
The teacup I use is on the right. It's very plain and definitely from a mold, but I've fallen in love with it.

Heres a picture of his teapot. A perfect combo for those 400.00$ vintage bings.
