Awesome.
I could survive on a set like that for the rest of my days.
Not brand new or 2160p but MarshalN's Gaiwan Youtube video is still excellent content: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=gqP3lFPd1bw

That is a lovely set. They look wonderful for green or herbal teas. Do you have a nice steeping pot to go with them?
There is a glass container in the box that starts with a g and a strainer. I have other strainers and tea things for normies though. Going to try it later today. :)
You've got a nice starting kit there! Thank your friend for being so kind by inviting them to a tea session with you!
Here's a few things that I wish I knew when I started trying high quality tea:
Get the water temp right for the type of tea and don't oversteep. I thought all tea was just undrinkably bitter, but I was just steeping everything for too long in boiling water.
Write a few notes about what you think about the tea. For the first year, my notes consisted of "bitter" or "I like this". I can't remember what the teas tasted like, so I wish I wrote down more.
Then, I just advise that you experiment yourself to find what works for you.
A virtual session anyway. :) That is neat, I should log and write things like that more. I shall start a tea table. :D
