Oracular Oriole - an oracle bird reading prophecies from matcha tea (milk foam in the shape of an open eye) with the inscriptions on the cup " Know thyself "- a Greek maxim referencing the oracle of Delphi. Oracular Oriole has great taste and proudly wears its sacred matcha brush as a hat. A cozy atmosphere adds to the magic, candles, and bowls filled with matcha/autumn leaves, spices like cinnamon, anise stars, vanilla pods, pumpkin/matcha powder, its favorite orange/lemon/citrus zest, and blueberries can be seen, too. In the front, two orioles are visiting this magical place none of them look like the other. They are much smaller than the mystical Oriole in the center of attention and are here to receive their reading. The sand on the floor forms lots of circles, a bit like a zen garden. Some sand routes seem to have moved a teapot to the scenery. These circular patterns also appear in the background but are colorful seagrass decoration. Electric pulses and colorful light show how far the supernatural work is at its current state. What will the future hold for the Orioles? Let's hope only the best :).

Was planning on updating this yesterday, but just coming back to this now. I went twice yesterday, and I wasn't disappointed. I had tried both the sakura matcha and the matcha float. Matcha is prepared after you order, so when they are busy, there can be a bit of a wait, however it also means that the matcha here is probably one of the best in Canberra.

Here is a photo dump for you.

An area of the tea house with some seating. In the background you can see Northbourne Avenue.

Matcha float, which is matcha latte with matcha soft serve ice cream in it.

Another area of the tea house with a bonsai. You can see some shoes in the frame as to the left just outside of the frame is a traditional seating area featuring tatami mats.

Today I will be checking out Ujin, which I am most excited about. It is an actual tea house serving premium matcha, so for you matcha gurlies like me, this is going to be a must to check out.

I will be sure to share some pictures and thoughts later in this thread.

Day 21 - matcha bowl

I’ve only dabbled in ceramics but I’m thankful for the time I got to spend with it.

I hope to be able to return when I’m healthier enough to have a craft which involves time & clean up a bit more strictly.

A low clay bowl which is a wide cylinder-ish shape held in a white person and wearing a compression glove with grippy dots. The base glaze is a light mossy lime, and green, which has a bamboo like texture pressed into the light clay. Above that is a dip glaze which fades from brown to cyan, kind of resembling seafoam in texture, especially at the cyan, where it is somewhat bubbly, and has lots of particulate dots. At the top of the cup, you can see the green through the glaze. The cyan is opaque. In the background is a Monstera plant.

A slightly higher angle, and the cup is rotated. Looking into the cup, we can see that the interior is a warmer brown, which is almost a little rusty red brown The glaze that goes from brown to cyan is dipped slightly on the interior, making a small rim high up in the interior with a thin cyan ring close to the top. On the side, we can see some imperfections in the depth of the top layer of the glaze over the green on the outside, it is a beginners piece.

Closer up view of the second coinage showing details in the glazes which are reflective and glassy on the outside. The inside glaze is more matte and has speckles of dark.

Those entrusted with safeguarding the Japanese tea ceremony see the global matcha craze not as a threat, but as a rare opportunity to share the deeper meaning and values of tea culture with the world. https://www.japantimes.co.jp/news/2025/10/02/japan/society/tea-ceremony-matcha/?utm_medium=Social&utm_source=mastodon #japan #society #matcha #food #tea #tourism
