[Quiet Man Cometh]

Ah. Yeah, I have a fair number of teacups, a couple sets, but mostly individual cups that I've inherited. I make a lot of different teas though, and my pots are usually small, one person size, or I use them for sampling when I have people around. My favourite is a plain, three footed stainless steel guy with the bottom of the handle disconnected from the pot so I don't burn my knuckles when I pour it. The mesh basket makes it handy too, since I have a lot of loose tea. I like my clay yixing pots but they tend not to pour very well because of their shape. I have a pig that pours through the nostrils (used for Genmaicha) and a horse with an open mouth (used for specific earl grey types).
